We keep right on circling back to that same sticking point here Echo (and others).

Seems like they and NNVC could have made an herpes cream by now. Maybe someone else will enter the scene and take over on HERPESCIDE CREAM and get that to higher than acadamia (sic) speed and into the market place and sell in stores.

My guess is that efficacy of the compounds (both then and now) and recognition that it 'could' be done (and probably should have been done ASAP) back then have hit the same wall.

Until 'Cides (generic form and not just Flucide) can be produced on sufficient scale to actually make a product in useful market quantities (aside from what yet needs to be made for Flucide TOX testing) - it can't be done.

Everything keeps circling back to the problem they are tackling in Shelton now,.... scale-up and (more importantly) scale-up with good QC results.

A partnership with a real manufacturer of medicines. Someone like Johnson and Johnson or others.

While I think in the long-run - something like this is going to have to be done,... a company like J&J or it's market competitors isn't going to take on manufacturing somebody else's compounds until they:

1) Have enough clinical evidence to indicate it actually is likely to work (we have nil clinical evidence yet).

2) They at NNVC have the scale-up process sufficiently 'cook booked' that one of the big guys can just follow the existing recipe and not have to do the optimization themselves.

What I'm trying to figure out is how Dr. Rosenthal "has success with herpescide again" and has opinions when it's been so long since he even worked there or anywhere.

Right now he's busy reading novels, traveling with his wife, and enjoying retirement. I find the wording in NNVC's PR interesting that Rosenthal "suggested" something rather than "stated" something.

Why is retired professor's work being touted when, if he did work on anything with NNVC "recently" the most recent would have been in 2013?
