We have also concentrated on studies for vaccine development with the idiotip antibody method by taking blood samples from individuals with Covid-19 antibodies, and also for the stem cell therapy. On the other hand, we quickly prepared our project and presented it to the relevant authorities in order to carry out the synthesis and various tests of the drug active substances used and needed in the treatment of Kovid-19.”
