Sure - medical personnel around the world killed millions of people just to make a campaign for a vaccine because other therapy would be too cheap. Sounds totally plausible. They wouldn't make that "incredibly effective" therapy more expensive instead because that's not how free market works and higher demand doesn't increase price.
Also that's not what the article was about - it was about using similar technology for malaria infection prevention as is used by some of covid vaccines.
Here in Italy we have thousands of doctors who coordinate in Whatsapp chats and Facebook groups and have treated tens of thousands of people. Would you like to join those groups and accuse them of being fake and that Sars-Cov2 infection cannot be cured?
Yes it can be cured. With a vaccine. that's why many different countries are pouring millions of dollars into this effort. Are you saying you don't believe these vaccines are actually effective?
A study published by The American Journal of Medicine confirms what I said: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0002934320306732#!
