AARON, Yes I saw 60 Minutes. I also wish it had been NNVC.

I liked the reassurance that the government has not become complacent about Ebola as a continued threat.

My impression (just watched it via the 60-minutes website) is that it was a very fair & evenhanded presentation of the problems that all Ebola and anti-bioterrorist treatments have run into. And all 'orphan' diseases.

There is no market for a treatment other than a Government or NGO source,.... thus research progress is slow, halting, and of a very low priority. And since Government sources of funding have been horribly slow, and everybody thinks 'it' should be done, but nobody wants to pay for 'it' - instead of getting ahead of a problem, we always have to play catch up when problems appear.

It was a good news article though. And Mr. Simon was among those few who was actually consistently a good journalist.
