Could be. That “subsalicylate” is in the name because it’s chemically related to aspirin, and scientists keep finding that aspirin does all sorts of things besides just pain relief.
And yeah, so do salicylates [4][5] (ex. aspirin, Pepto Bismol).
A few studies from the 1960's [6].
Folks might consider knowing their salicylate level if they ingest regularly. [7]
But just like Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine, these compounds are not just relegated to the back of the bus...they are thrown under the bus when it comes to sars-cov-2 "recommended" or potential therapeutics. $$$ can't be made and therefore the gov't functionaries like fraudchi can't be bothered and politicians can't be bought.
