I agree about the media angle. But I do get alarmed when I see outside broadcasts in news reports with everyone seeming to be walking around without masks and ignoring social distancing. The queue outside Primark in Glasgow on Monday morning was a prime example. The rules here in Spain are much tighter and hopefully safer for us all.

Yes as I said media reporting it is not "Everyone" walking around without masks or not Social Distancing....Media will always report the bad things. There are many who do and in my part of the World very well social distanced behaved people....even though the rules here for masks have not been enforced everyhwere..blame Boris for that one.

According to the Bay Radio News item the company who produces it is an American company and own the patent rights.
The US have the highest levels of infection.
Its not a cure but helps a better recovery during hospitalisation.
