developing non-addictive products for pain management, post-traumatic stress disorder, central nervous system (CNS) disorders and anti-viral barrier indications, is looking to use Molecular Envelope Technology (MET) or a similar technology to deliver a mRNA COVID vaccine. Virpax currently uses its MET for Envelta (NES100) and NobrXiol (VRP324).
