A good thing, but isn't this lower than the protection of vaccination?

Could be useful prophylaxis, could supplement. Could help for people who arent vaccinated. could be a cheap path for poor economies, but all of this begs the question: why can't we make vaccination available and routine?

Also, given the FUD about adverse reactions (and the misunderstanding about scale) -these sprays cause nasal bleeding, loss of sense of smell, and people reported tiredness. These aren't nothing right? So.. if you refused an mRNA vaccine because one in 50,000 people had an adverse reaction, you're willing to think your burger and fries tastes different at .. what rate?

Nasal vaccine delivery is also a thing. We could use this method to deploy both a preventive, and a vaccine.

Discussion of anything other than vaccines to prevent COVID is discouraged. Trust the experts.

No one's stopping you -- or anyone else -- from talking about this. That's why there's public research available.
