Yes dad that is what I heard.
So production and revenue is coming from Vietnam while pure spider silk and other unnamed proteins will be produced in the United States. This new Technology makes the company a buy out target that just got more expensive.
Get a clue.
Give it up my friend. Or comrade?
Who is going to buy us?
Well said Red
Yes probably unrelated but I think you are in the right ballpark. New stateside subsidiary to be announced soon. Just my honest opinion.
.299 now
Breaking three should put a smile on our faces. Well some of us anyway.
Thanks hope. It’s been a Long decade. Glad I stuck to my intuition buying when there was “blood in the streets”.
As my friend the real Jimmy Buffett might say:
“ what he lost in ambition he made up with intuition. Plowing straight ahead come what may!”)
Time to create a new subsidiary
“This technology is in essence a protein expression platform which has other potential applications including diagnostics and pharmaceutical production.”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I likes me green mon!!!!!
KBLB hanging tough!
Thank you sickzone. Your boots on the ground connection to Vietnam and matter of fact presentation of it is highly valued and appreciated on this board. That’s great news on Mulberry being ready as Prodigy’s production begins. There are not many countries that have done a better job, I can’t really think of any, than Vietnam weathering the storm. Prodigy textiles should have a head start on the rest of the world. Go Kblb
I’ve been wondering this for days now. Could any of KBLB’s silks be a superior air filter for facemask and the many other air filters applications that could be used to fight against respiratory airborne illness.

That’s the way to do it. I think Vietnam will implement the measures it has to and be ahead of most in getting back to a sense of normalcy.
Green!
Far out!

Very interesting post rayo.
I have the long view here and will be accumulating as I can. We have an opportunity these days for many to become Kongs and for Kongs to become multi and mega Kong’s.
We will come through this in time and as we do the PPS will roar like a lion and many will wish they had taken advantage of opportunities to buy when they could have at a discount. It appears others have a similar point of view as today’s stock price seems incredibly resilient considering everything. The world at large is going to see a rough patch but the future is still very bright. Where are my shades?
So batten down the hatches! Our Ship is going to sail through a storm and eventually into blue sky and good air.
Excellent question.
And that’s the truth
Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Looks like there are a lot of great deals out there in the market today but in my opinion none much better than The long-term potential of KBLB.
Whoever sold those cheap shares to me this morning will be kicking themselves when the dust settles. Nevertheless, thank you. Great days for accumulation. GO KBLB
Meanwhile, back in Vietnam the sun is shining and the Mulberry is growing and KBLB is full speed ahead.
hello banana.
I was not saying the virus had run its course world wide or even here in the United States yet. However it would appear that Vietnam dodged a bullet!!!
They were on the coronavirus with amazing efficiency and seem to have done a better job than almost everywhere else. As it turns out, just another reason that it was very smart to begin in Vietnam. I think KBLB is going to come out of all of this in fine shape. Good luck to all. Stay safe.
This is amazingly excellent news. Thanks for posting imelcooler.
As the overall Asian coronavirus recovery occurs Vietnam should have a head start on the region and the rest of the world. Kraig Biocraft is in a good position to take advantage of this opportunity.
I will sanitize a previous post for public consumption as well:
It would appear that some people are doing everything in their power to create fear about Kblb. Anyone selling in this environment, considering the tremendous potential just over the horizon, will be kicking themselves when this thing (coronavirus) passes. It will pass! Selling into the fear will come back and bite you.
My Guess specifically is that this major scientific breakthrough will be extremely exciting and will have massive implications in the medical community. I bet we will eventually have a subsidiary to encompass the business activities that will be generated by this upcoming announcement. This is just my guess and opinion. Of course I could be way off base with this pertaining to potential medical application and it may be something even more interesting when the announcement comes. We shall see. My suggestion is don’t let the fear mongers steal your shares now. Hold on in my opinion and we will be rewarded. To each his own! Make wise choices. I am going to hold on.
Nice find Truth.
KBLB and Vietnam need each other right now. Great fit!
Interesting. Thanks sz!!!
Nice to see a post of substance!

JoshCoronavirus miracle? Vietnam says all its infected patients cured
Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam - Amid the rapid spread of the coronavirus outbreak around the world, Vietnam has announced that all 16 infected patients in the country were discharged from hospital and declared cured.
As of Wednesday, all 16 patients, including the oldest who is 73, had been cured and discharged from the hospital.

Coronavirus: All you need to know about symptoms and risks
For the past 15 days, including on Friday, the government also detected no new cases of infections, the last one having been reported on February 13, even as a village north of Hanoi remains under a 20-day lockdown.
"If fighting COVID-19 has been a war, then we have won the first round but not the entire war because the situation can be very unpredictable," Vietnam's Ministry of Health quoted Deputy Prime Minister Vu Duc Dam as saying, referring to the illness caused by the coronavirus, during an online conference with city and provincial officials on Tuesday.
Worldwide, the outbreak has already killed almost 3,000 and infected more than 83,000 as of Saturday.
It is a different story, however, in Vietnam. World Health Organization (WHO) officials and health experts said the government's swift response to the emergency was crucial in containing the crisis at the early stage.
By Wednesday, the Vietnamese government declared that the 16th and final patient infected with the virus had been discharged from the hospital.
The 50-year-old man, identified as NVV, had earlier caught the infection from his 23-year-old daughter, identified only as NTD. Both are natives of Son Loi district in the northern province of Vinh Phuc, where 11 cases were found.
The daughter was one of eight employees of a Japanese company who returned from the Chinese city of Wuhan, the epicentre of the virus, on January 17. In all, six people among the group were found to have tested positive for the virus later.
Some of their relatives and friends were also infected, including a three-month-old baby, the youngest coronavirus patient to date.
Proactive, consistent response
Dr Kidong Park, WHO representative in Vietnam, attributed the success to the government's "proactiveness and consistency throughout the response".
Vietnam's novel coronavirus nightmare began when two Chinese nationals were found to be the first cases in Ho Chi Minh City on January 23, the first day of the Lunar New Year celebration holiday, casting a gloomy air over the festive season.
Vietnam officially declared the coronavirus an epidemic on February 1, when the number of cases in the country rose to six.
On February 13, the health ministry ordered all 10,600 residents of Son Loi to remain under lockdown for 20 days, after more cases were confirmed.
"The country has activated its response system at the early stage of the outbreak, by intensifying surveillance, enhancing laboratory testing, ensuring infection prevention and control and case management in healthcare facilities, clear risk communication message, and multi-sectoral collaboration," Park, the WHO official, told Al Jazeera.
No treatment yet
"There's no medication for this virus yet. We rely on fundamental principles," Nguyen Thanh Long, deputy minister of health, said at a news conference in Hanoi in early February, after 10 cases were reported.
Healthcare workers have been instructed to follow some protocols to assess the infection and the level of severity.
First, the doctors are required to treat the symptoms, like fever. Second, the patients are placed on a strict, nutritious diet.
The third step, according to Nguyen, is to closely monitor the oxygen saturation level in the blood of the patients.
While efforts were made to eliminate infections behind hospital doors, Vietnam has also suspended classes, extending school breaks to protect students. Millions of students in 63 cities and provinces in Vietnam have not been back to school since the beginning of the Lunar New Year celebration.
'Safety first'
Deputy Minister of Education and Training Nguyen Huu Do said during a meeting on Tuesday that, "the safety of students must be placed above all", according to the education ministry's website.
The ministry has instructed schools to disinfect classrooms before students resume their classes.
Teachers and staff have been asked to remind students about proper hygiene like hand-washing, and carry out temperature checks on students upon their arrival. Schools are also required to prepare health forms used to monitor students.
A document from the education ministry, issued on Thursday and seen by Al Jazeera, instructed authorities to allow students to return to school on March 2 "if the COVID-19 situation is well-controlled and there are no further complicated developments".
Students up to the secondary education level were given another week or two off school.
"I'm very nervous about going back to work. Hopefully, it's going to be OK considering this hot weather," said Le Hanh, a psychology consultant at a public high school with nearly 2,000 students in Ho Chi Minh City said.
Ho Chi Minh, the country's largest city, has nearly two million students, from kindergarten to continuing education and vocational training schools.
'Ban on wildlife export'
While Vietnam has contained the virus well to this point, some believe that more needs to be done, especially with wildlife trade.
Wild animals have been identified as the link allowing the deadly disease to jump to humans, similar to the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in 2002 and the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) in 2012.
Vietnam, a hotspot for wildlife trafficking and consumption, has also ramped up measures in this regard.
On January 28, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc ordered a ban on imports of wild animals into Vietnam.
The Forest Protection Department also temporarily prohibited the transport of wild animals out of Vietnam until further notice, according to an official document released two weeks ago.
How these directives are being implemented and how much action has been taken to address the root causes remains unclear, however, said Dr Ben Rawson of World Wildlife Fund in Vietnam.
"There is currently no direct ban on consumption of wildlife, which is the driver for illegal transport and illegal trade within the provinces," Rawson told Al Jazeera.
Illegal markets, restaurants and farms, where animals are caged, slaughtered, stored and served to buyers with no proper hygiene, may be largely unaffected by actions so far, as "it may not involve movement of wildlife across provincial borders which is restricted," he noted.
'It's not over yet'
While Vietnam has managed to contain the virus, for now, the country should not lower its guard, given the spread of the infection elsewhere, like South Korea, authorities said.
Since South Korea became the biggest coronavirus centre outside China, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has ordered a ban on travellers from there.
On Friday, Vietnam announced a temporary suspension of visas for South Korean nationals starting on Saturday.
At the same time, Vietnam announced that Iranian and Italian travellers will be subjected to a 14-day quarantine upon arriving in the country.
WHO has declared a global health emergency over the virus, and on Friday, the UN health agency said it is is "getting bigger" by the day.
Park of the WHO in Vietnam said the fight against the virus in the country is "far from over", sounding the alarm on the increasing global transmissions.
"We are at a critical juncture in the outbreak. Countries, including Vietnam, should use this time to prepare for the possibility of wider transmission."

The Exciting Story of Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Inc (OTCMKTS: KBLB) 0
BY JACOB WATSON ON FEBRUARY 27, 2020 MEDIA & TECHNOLOGY, MICRO CAP INSIDER, SMALL CAPS
Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Inc (OTCMKTS: KBLB) is up big in a down market after the Company announced it is set to unveil a major scientific breakthrough in spider silk based polymers. Management will host an online presentation open to all press, stakeholders and interested parties on March 19. The fact they are inviting the press speaks volumes.
Microcapdaily has been covering KBLB in last year when we stated in July 2019 – “KBLB” move up started in April after the Company announced plans to bring to market the first fabrics made from spider silk. Initially developed for specialized military applications, these first-of-their-kind materials made from recombinant spider silk will eventually service the global market for high performance textiles and apparel. KBLB has been around for years developing their spider silk and bringing it to market represents a major breakthrough for the Company.
Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Inc (OTCMKTS: KBLB) is a biotechnology company focused on the development of commercially significant high performance polymers and technical fibers. Kraig Lab’s focus has been on the production of a transgenic silkworm incorporating specific gene sequences from the golden orb weaving spider. These specific gene sequences inserted are to enable the silkworm to spin a new recombinant fiber which incorporates spider silk proteins. With the scientific breakthrough announced on September 29, 2010, Kraig Labs is now working to commercialize the transgenic silkworms to compete in the garment industry silk market. The value for the chinese raw silk market alone is 3-5 billion per annum. With the creation of 20 seperate transgenic silkworms, all with unique properties, Kraig Labs is now working at an accelerated pace to build upon their first generation transgenic organisms to develop their second generation of transgenic silkworm incorporating spider silk proteins. The scientists nearly doubled the strength of the silkworm with these specific spider gene insertions. Their second generation of transgenics are expected to be complete in 2011. These second generation organisms are to be compared with the strength, flexibility and resiliency of the native spider in which the gene sequences are derived from. These fibers which will match the strength of spider silk are expected to compete in the technical textiles market valued in excess of 120 billion per annum. The 3rd generation organisms are currently in the planning phase. These organisms are expected to spin fibers exceeding the strength of native spiders and may incorporate gene sequences that release an antibiotic, or to help reduce scarring with use in bandages.

KBLB
KBLB has long held that its genetically engineered protein-based fibers have properties that are in some ways superior to the materials currently available in the marketplace. For example, as noted above, the ability of spider silk to absorb in excess of 100,000 joules of kinetic energy per kilogram makes it a potentially ideal material for structural blast protection. Production of this material in commercial quantities holds the potential of a life-saving ballistic resistant material, which is lighter, thinner, more flexible, and tougher than steel. Other applications for spider silk based recombinant fibers include use as structural material and for any application in which light weight and high strength are required. We believe that fibers made with recombinant protein-based polymers will make significant inroads into the specialty fiber and technical textile markets.
While scientists have been able to replicate the proteins that are the building blocks of spider silk, the technological barrier that has stymied production until now has been the inability to form these proteins into a fiber with the desired mechanical characteristics and to do so in a cost effective manner.

Your words rayo are artistic and profoundly accurate. Well said!
U DA MAN!!!!!
1,3 and 4 have been confirmed by the company. The learning curve will always be there to some degree as improvements are made toward ever higher quality and quantity. In the long run our initial hiccup could actually make this company stronger as adjustments are made on the learning curve. It’s the long term that I’m in this for. This company will succeed despite the verbiage of its detractors. Good luck to all who are looking forward to that success.
All that rhyming with long and strong was getting out of hand. ;)
I agree with you. We are all in this. Together.
Maybe that hiccup made us stronger in the long strong run. I’m looking forward to springtime in Vietnam.
There are less cases of the coronavirus in Vietnam than there is in the United States as of today and the US number is only 11. So relax.
U.S. Coronavirus Cases
As of February 5, 2020 at 14:05 GMT, there have been 11 confirmed cases of patients infected with the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) in the United States:
6 in California
2 in Illinois
1 in Arizona
1 in Washington state
1 in Massachusetts
That was a great post rayo!
Lessons learned. We are going to nail this next batch!
