I have been a shareholder of APT on and off for many years.
Made some money during the SARS scare several years back when there were pictures in China of everyone wearing surgical masks on the subway. At the time APT ran up to about three but then the SARS scare subsided and so did the price of APT.
Now its H1N1 and this is the real deal!!!!!!!
Got my Tamiflu already stocked for myself and extended family!
Only 50 million doses in the US-you do the math!
When the virus was first detected I figured it would smolder until the colder weather arrived in the more densely populated northern hemisphere.
When the cold weather arrives the virus will be more stable and the transmission rates will explode along with the severity of the illness as the innoculum size will increase as well.
With regard to the swine flu in general-you can try to buy vaccine companies like NVAX, AVII, VICL, DVAX, SVA, INO, or GSK but only a couple of them will prevail or their vaccine earnings will be diluted by other products that the company produces.
You can try to buy respirator companies or other protective mask companies (MMM, JNJ, KMB)but there are none that supply just respirators/masks and no other medical equipment. Again their earnings will be diluted.
APT is a pure play. I like it before, during and after earnings tomorrow as H1N1 is the real deal.
