I can't substantiate that claim, no. When I dug into it, it does not appear that Roivant were involved with that at all (makes sense, they are a prescription drug development company). I'm slightly unclear where this claim originated from, as I see it thrown around a lot, but without any actual details.

Note that I *did find* that Roivant owns IP for a monoclonal antibody called Gimsilumab (owned within a subsidiary, Kinevant). This is a drug they thought may be useful to treat Covid, but they haven't begun to make any money from it, it's still in trials.
I had a look around for whether the claim is relevant to Strive Asset Management, the anti-ESG (anti woke) fund Vivek founded in 2022. They own mainly ETFs, so no smoking guns there.
From digging around, I have come to think that this misunderstanding / confusion is related to Peter Thiel...
When Vivek founded Strive, some big names invested in the fund (Bill Ackman etc). Two of those investors were Peter Thiel and Joe Lonsdale, who co-founded Palantir years ago. *Palantir* has been involved, to some degree, with contract tracing. I think that's where people have gotten their wires crossed. I'm personally not a big fan of Thiel, or Palantir ...but Palantir is not Vivek's company, it's been around for 20 years or so.
Attempted same and couldn't really find anything. Barring some great revelation between now and 6pm, I'm planning to caucus for him. He's by far the least terrible of the lot.
I like what DeSantis did in FL on Disney and once he came to his senses on covid but he's been pretty limp wristed on issues important to me like foreign entanglements. Like Trump, VR treats the media like the lying pond scum they are while not yet having the opportunity to profoundly disappoint me in the way Trump did with covid and OWS. Also, I'd vote for the steaming dog turd next to the snowman in my front yard before a neocon like Nikki Haley.
