For anyone looking to invest here, or perhaps refresh yourself on why you made the investment, here are a few of my own points, researched in depth and collaborated for all to view.

Open for discussion.
1. Synairgen is developing a formulation of IFN-beta, called SNG001, for direct delivery to the lungs via nebulisation, to treat and/or prevent LRT illness caused by respiratory viruses.
2. 18th March 2020, Synairgen started the trials of SNG001 in Covid-19.
3. Synairgen have been mentioned in the 'Dragon Project' A new international project FULLY FUNDED by IMI and supported through the European Horizon 2020 framework programme.
4. Two Phase II trials (SG005 and INEXAS) in asthma, conducted by Synairgen and AstraZeneca respectively, suggest that SNG001 boosts antiviral responses in the lungs, has a beneficial effect on lung function.
5. Southampton, UK - 30 April 2020: Synairgen plc (LSE: SNG), the respiratory drug discovery and development company, announces that it has received approvals to extend the SG016 trial to patients with SARS-CoV-2 in the home environment.
(75 patients out of the target 100 now dosed with Synairgen's wholly-owned drug SNG001 or placebo).
6. Snippet from 'The Lancet'
"Future clinical study of a double antiviral therapy with interferon beta-1b as a backbone is warranted" Further strengthening the use for Synairgens fully owned drug.
7. Synairgen was identified in the WHO's landscape analysis of therapeutics as at 17th February 2020 as the only phase 2 / phase 3 / observational therapy delivered by the inhaled route.
8. 26th march 2020 - Synairgen had raised the funds in HEAVILY OVERSUBSCRIBED fundraising through the issue of 40mln new shares at a price of 35p. (Current price 53.50p)
9. Bradford is also one of just four centres in the UK researching the effects of Beta Interferon on coronavirus, in a study coordinated by the University of Southampton.
"Beta interferon improves the immunity within the airwaves of the lungs against the Covid-19 virus so that it helps protect the people from coming to harm," explained Dr Saralaya"
10. Small snippet of an article I found really interesting.
It’s possible that treatment with so-called type-1 interferon “could stop the virus before it could get established,” Menachery said"
There's plenty more articles/topics if anyone would like them, ask away.
In the current pandemic I only see this company going from strength to strength.
All views are in my own opinion.
Hope this helps a few on here!
