EVERGLADES, Fla. – A python hunter and a researcher believe the help in the fight against COVID-19 is hiding in the Florida Everglades.
Dustin Crum and Daryl Thompson, a researcher, and entrepreneur with Global Research and Discovery Group out of Winter Haven, said the invasive Burmese python contains squalene, a compound that’s commonly used in vaccines.
That’s enough to make about 3,500 vaccinations.”“We have a lot of snakes in the Everglades,” Crum said.
Currently, the compound is not on the Food and Drug Administration’s list of ingredients in the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.
I also agree that pythons in the everglades are a major problem.
