I did not yet see a single quantum algorithm able to tackle the protein folding problem.
Sure, quantum computers could be faster at solving graph related problems, but I did not see an approach able to reduce protein folding to a graph problem.
On the other hand neural networks have been successfully applied to the protein folding problem, and they do that quite quickly.
Not a perfect solution indeed, quantum computers may be much better at that; but I still do not see a theoretical framework which justifies claims as to the applicability of quantum computers to the protein folding problem.
