^ and he's still wrong. There are several drugs and vaccines undergoing trials as we speak, and being given to patients in China. At least two drugs, Remdesivir and Chloroquine have shown efficacy already. Chloroquine is a generic that costs a dollar a bucket and can be produced in any quantity.
These are antiviral drugs that may partially lessen the effects for some people who are already demonstrably sick (Remdesivir is administered intravenously to patients who are already hospitalized and is only in very first stage of initial trials). They will do very little to stop the spread of the virus.
(Also, perhaps if you read the article instead of just doing Ctl-F for Remdesivir, you'd have noticed that he said he plans to discuss specific drugs in an upcoming post.)
