Halberd Corporation Files for Patent Protection on Enhanced Nasal Spray to Prevent Covid-19


Halberd Corporation reported the filing of a Covid-19 provisional patent on an enhanced nasal spray. The application, Nasal Spray to Prevent the Transmission of Covid-19, discloses a combination of proprietary Covid-19 Spike Protein antibodies, ACE2 antibody, and Neuropilin-1 antibodies. This application builds on, and is an improvement to an earlier provisional patent application, Nasal Spray to Prevent the Transmission of Covid-19 Between Humans.

Multiple medical articles (1, 2) have shown that intra-nasal ACE2 receptors, which are more prevalent in older adults than children, are thought to be a key factor in adults being infected with Covid-19 at higher rates than children. Recent studies have shown Neuropilin-1, a protein widespread in the body, but occurring primarily on cells in the lungs and nose (3), provides additional binding sites for the Covid-19 spike protein. By blocking ACE2 receptors and Neuropilin-1, it is believed Covid-19 spike proteins can be prevented from attaching to receptors in nasal passages, and reducing the disease’s infectivity (4).

Mr. William A. Hartman, Chairman, President & CEO of Halberd Corporation, stated “As more becomes known about the Covid-19 virus, the better we are able to configure our treatments to combat the disease. This new intellectual property is a case in point. This second nasal spray configuration, which builds on the initial design, we believe will provide enhanced protection against contracting Covid-19 by preventing access through nasal receptors.”
