You have mentioned that you tried to contact Dr. Rider about DRACO, but were unable to reach him. I recently went to Dr. Rider's Rider Institute website and it appears that it is being maintained. Perhaps contacting him is worth another try. https://riderinstitute.org/

Have you considered partnering with USAMRIID? DRACO was initially developed under a grant from DARPA for I assume the purpose of providing a defense against biological warfare agents. UAAMRIID is the primary lab responsible for developing biological defenses. They would be very interested in a broad spectrum antiviral like VTose. They also have a program for cooperating with outside labs, sometimes providing funding. https://www.usamriid.army.mil/extramural.htm
