Gilead Sciences is by far the biggest assignee and seeing the most success in the market place in the Pharma & Biopharma subcategory on the Pandemics patent radian. Notably, on July 1st, the United States bought almost the entire worldwide stock of the antiviral drug Remdesivir. 

Remdesivir does not cure coronavirus but does speed up recovery from a COVID-19 infection and is currently the best treatment against the virus. With other companies issuing patent applications for coronavirus treatments like Voyager Therapeutics and Mymd Pharmaceuticals, there might be new emerging competitors and potential cures at any moment.
