NRx Pharmaceuticals is a great speculative biotech to look into. While there are many types of treatments and vaccines for Covid-19, NRX-101 gives the company a chance to get into the bipolar depression space as well. Even then, there is a possible expansion opportunity for ZYESAMI beyond Covid-19.
NRx Pharmaceuticals has received a first safety report from a Southwestern hospital where physicians have administered ZYESAMI® (Aviptadil) to patients with COVID-19 respiratory failure.
