So this pill slows down the progression of the disease while at the same time increases the substance that perhaps/probably is close to or may be the first cause of the disease? Hello? 

And by the way, is the same drug company now testing this new drug and at the same time buying the company that claims their vaccine will remove the substance the new drug produces as one of its side effects? So I take one drug to slow the effects of the disease, and I take another drug made by the same company to reverse the side effects of the new drug.
