Would Monolaurin clear cccDNA ?

Since Monolaurin binds to and disintegrates the viral lipid envelope of HBV would it also clear the cccDNA from the liver?

upseting that hb is so complex. Its better not to think live without it but to adopt and learn to live with it.

because hbsag number is so high that it is not possible to lower it even injecting hbsab antibody, if production is not stopped there is no way to lower it, only rep9ac which blocks hbsag secretion can make it undetectable and then immune modulators must activate immunity otherwise even blocking hbsag secretion from cells is usless
