LOL, OP! Actually, if you read this in entirety, you'll see they are operating off an interesting premise....one that aspirin isn't likely to help with. In any case, it's interesting....

Drug companies are only interested in drugs that they can patent.

They don't even care if they actually work or not, as long as they can patent and sell them.

I read the article, and they are trying to engineer a chemical to be replicated in a virus.

So far, it doesn't sound as good as, much less better than, aspirin.
