You're posting pure fantasy and trying to sell is as if it were fact. Not a single thing you just wrote is factual.

You're telling us Gene Seymour runs the Army? It is, after all, the Army that paid for, is conducting, and will eventually release results of the new round of EbolaCide trials.

In your mind, it's somehow Dr. Seymour's "fault" that the Army isn't doing things basis YOUR timetable?

Exactly how is that the least bit rational?

Reading the Allallan blog was my introduction to nnvc. Here's a link to his post today. He covers nnvc from both a technical and fundamental perspoective in this post.

The Army is not in the habit of publicly disclosing details on it's weapons or defense systems. I don't know if this is classified info or not, but I suspect that possibility was made abundantly clear to NNVC when the Army agreed to study the efficacy of the nanoviricides.

The only thing lukewarm about the results yesterday was the market's reaction to them.

Now, I know the market is always "right", but in this case they missed the boat.

Simply put: Having the world's leading researcher in the dengue field find a preliminary study to have "significant efficacy" is huge. For her to already going ahead and testing them on the specially bred mice speaks volumes, too. She's not wasting any time here. I believe no one wants this to work more than she. Her life's work is dedicated to not only effective treatment and vaccination, but, now, the distinct possibility of wiping Dengue off the face of the earth.

The USAMRIID study was reported in the annual 10K a long time ago. The lukewarm results are known to all. The sheddase problem was fully explained, the nanomicelle redesigned, and the testing begun again only these past few months since it was announced in late February or early March.

This type of misinformation is growing irritating.

I prefer to think/believe, even, that the results of prior testing were favourable but maybe not perfect - so they tweaked, they have admitted that it is a two way street - they supply the cide, it is tested, results are studied by HQ and IMPROVEMENTS made - no use going to the FDA with some half baked cide!

The FDA doesn't give a blanket OK - they are very specific and so it goes - testing, improving, tweaking till they get it right. And don't forget the universaling side of things - including multiple ligands in the one cide to cover a plurality of variations be it flu or Ebola or HIV, etc.
