b'In Part 2, Chris and Neal further discuss the Coronavirus outbreak with Dr. Steven Reed, PhD. Reed, one of the foremost authorities in developing vaccines in the world, he has had more than $200M grants to his name and has developed/invented countless lifesaving therapeutics for the world. He and his current team at Onc Bio are one of only 4 known organizations in the Western Hemisphere developing a Coronavirus solution, in addition to the interesting therapeutics and technologies in their portfolio. Steve and his team have been working around the clock to develop a vaccine. Tune in to learn more about that process and get an update on the Coronavirus. Note Steve lives within 10 miles of the first reported deaths in the USA (in Kirkland, Wa), and his wife is a nurse at the hospital in Kirkland. Steve is genuinely at ground zero of this new pandemic. We also talk a bit more about the market and how professional investors are handling the free fall and recoveries happening and touch on how this will affect VC valuations in life sciences.\\n\\nLink to ONC Bio: https://www.onc.bio\\nRecent article written by Bill Gates: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2003762'
