Hi I’m Lekshmi Santhosh, MD, MA, a lung doctor (pulmonologist), critical care doctor, and long COVID clinic founder at the University of California, San Francisco, and member of the American Thoracic Society (ATS). With influenza season starting, and the COVID-19 pandemic continuing, I’m here to answer your questions about COVID-19 and influenza vaccinations, and hopefully encourage you to get both.
It's 2 pm, so we will call it here. Thanks for all the questions!

I can’t even pretend to understand the science described in this (9/5/2021) pre-print article but since it has been co-authored by Dr. William DeGrado and references use of Brilacidin in multiple instances (Pg. 15, 33, 36) I thought it would be worth posting.
Many of our community members have the credentials to decipher the article. If there are implications for Brilacidin’s development please share your interpretations with the r/IPIX community.
