Israeli medtech firm claims it may have found Covid-19 cure
A new treatment based on proteins could cure people with the Covid-19 virus, an Israeli startup claims.
According to Tel Aviv-based Novel Concepts Medical, the treatment is a combination of natural compounds and was proven in lab results to show a significant decrease in the amount of the Covid-19 ‘spike protein’ within a few hours of incubation.
The company’s founder, Dr. Rachel R. Alkalay, who is a PhD graduate of Queen Mary University London, explained to
City A.M. that the spike protein is the part in the virus that connects the virus to the cell.

We have come to the end of a year that challenged our plans, strategies, and programme delivery but also inspired new ways of working and fresh solutions to reaching our goals. The far-reaching impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has not spared any sector and has laid bare the deep inequalities and continued marginalization experienced by millions of vulnerable people the world over, particularly women and youth.
Yet through this, our partnerships have remained strong; on behalf of the UNFPA East and Southern Africa Regional office team, I thank you for your perseverance and commitment despite the new terrain we have had to navigate collectively.

Both issues are politically hellish for Johnson. On Covid, his own Conservative party has vocally opposed his government s approach for being too restrictive.
