Covid patch is FAR from useless. It will treat symptoms of many diseases including covid which will mutate beyond the current vaccine eventually. The vaccine will have to be redone periodically just like the flu virus. They don't even know if people will still get covid symptoms/be contagious after the vaccine which is why they recommend people still wear the mask. Plus I'll bet 1/3 of the population will never take the vaccine just like a large % don't trust the flu vaccine.

So doc doesn't have to say anything right now if he chooses to wait till Q1. You already admit you've been selling and playing other stocks so what are your worries? The shares you have left will be worth a lot when the news is released in Q1.
