My memory is a little rusty, but I believe yes. If I remember correctly simulation of the virus helped medically in a few ways. Specifically I think it gave insight into the mRNA vaccines and what sequences to use to make them effective (by basically making a slightly worse spike protein). I am sure it helped in drug discovery as I know our lab used simulations to suggest some potential drug pockets. There were some really good talks about it at NVIDIA's GTC last year or so (maybe more at this recent GTC but I had too much going on personally to watch the VODs).
