JK-05 has achieved some encouraging successes in the laboratory, but there have been no experiments on humans yet, which is why the drug has only been approved for military emergencies. Should the human test results prove positive, the Chinese medication could be the first one suitable for wide use, since its simple chemical structure makes it relatively easy to mass-produce. That is an advantage over, for instance, ZMapp, an experimental drug from the US, reserves of which are already running low even in its test phase.
