Nicotinamide riboside vs. SARS-coV-2 update

You may recall my previous rants about nicotinamide riboside vs. SARS-CoV-2. They have been borne out so far... there has been a human trial on NR in Denmark since May 28, the NIH just announced a hamster preclinical yesterday to be done in their BL4, and Brenner lab has updated the original work just today with more confirmatory results (link below).

Unlike the quinones, remdesivir, and bleach, NR has no dangerous side effects. Very frustrating to see this never mentioned except in overseas press.

Hey, do you know if there are any results on the human or animal trials yet? I haven't been able to find anything, even though it's been a few months and it seems like initial data ought to be coming in.
