Q: Vaccine developers are something like the Klondike goldrush, numerous companies are hoping to discover the vaccine for this virus and that would make them the next Shopify. I read a lot and especially on US sites. A few companies surfaced recently which could possibly be the next gold discovery (vaccine) which are ARCT, NVAX, DVAX, IBIO and GOVX. Do you recognize any of these and think they could be the next big stock winners in providing a vaccine for the epidemic?

Q: San Diego small cap Sorrento Therapeutics stock exploded on Friday. Sorrento said it's STI-1499 antibody demonstrated 100% inhibition of the COVID-19 virus infection of healthy cells in pre-clinical trials. The company advised full results of the experiment will soon be submitted to a "peer-reviewed publication." A week ago they announced an agreement to work with Mount Sinai Health System on a phase one clinical trial of the retained plasma of 15000 covid patients commencing in Q3.
The company appears to be claiming that STI-1499 at the pre-clinical stage is a cure which they plan to develop as a stand alone treatment as well as the 1st part of an antibody cocktail treatment which they are developing in cooperation with Mount Sinai for the same purpose.
Generally speaking I am an investor, not a gambler but am interested in your views/comments on this company and it's financial situation, which is why I mention the word "gamble". Would you invest/gamble ? on this co. at this stage or sit back and wait for further confirmation of test results.

Q: Is Quidel worth owning on its merits -- quite apart from the diagnostic testing that's given it an incredible pop in the last month? As a health care play, would you prefer this one over Teladoc, (TDOC) for instance. I realize they are not "exactly equivalent" in terms of their intrinsic businesses, but I am looking for solid growth story in the health field.

Q: Long Term Care and Seniors Residence in general are in the spot light demonstrating what perhaps many of us, still young seniors, know from looking after our parents in and around Seniors Residence.....that they are not desirable places to have to be. Even the high end residence the majority of seniors can not afford are difficult to staff and are still close quarters to one degree or another. That said, staying away from those places will be the preference of us who are getting up there. SIS devices will be in greater demand. Who are other companies to compete with SIS?
Sorry for being long winded.
