Yes, I'm aware SNG is not just a covid company - that's why I mentioned COPD in my last post...

and as for the risk - yes, that's why I'm keen to know whether the delivery of COPD results is still on-track...

The point is SNG is not a pure Covid company.
It's entirely possible that COPD trials fail in which case they will become a covid dependent company. So still a lot of risk with the trials and could easy crash back down.

and see the WHO info I postd the other day. COPD is a huge killer, worldwide, responsible for 5% of all global deaths (in 2016, think that was)...

SNG is trying to provide TREATMENT for Covid and COPD. It's not a vaccine.
The point is people will need treating until everyone is vaccinated and there are millions who need it right now.

SNG is also hoping similar TREATMENT can be use for asthma/COPD. That is where the long term future lies.


According to this article there are 1.2m people suffering from COPD in UK alone and 115k new cases are diagnosed every year. COPD is also the 4th leading cause of death.
That's without taking into account Covid.




Globally, COPD is the fourth leading cause of death and expected to be the third by 2020.
An estimated 1.2 million people are affected by COPD in the UK. There are 115,000 new diagnoses a year. Nevertheless, COPD remains underdiagnosed. 60-85% of patients, mainly with mild-to-moderate disease, are thought to remain undiagnosed.
Most patients are not diagnosed until they are in their fifties. COPD is closely associated with levels of deprivation - rates of COPD are higher in more deprived communities.
COPD is often associated with comorbidities, particularly cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, lung cancer, osteoporosis, muscle weakness, depression and anxiety.

Have we heard from the company lately to confirm that the COPD read-out is still on track for August?
