John, I certainly don't want to add to that queasy HEB feeling, but that "Value Management & Research" report indicates that HEB completed Phase 3 trials, and was granted something called a "treatment IND" (Investigational New Drug). This allows them to sell Ampligen for treating severe cases of CFS, while they continue to gather more data (i.e., the larger, second Phase 3 trial they are just starting). Another way to look at it, I assume, is that they did not have convincing evidence from the initial Phase 3 trial, but the FDA is allowing them to do some real-world testing in the meantime (since the first Phase 3 didn't show any dangerous side effects). I'm no biotech guru, as I tend to stay away from them (short or long). I broke my rule this time!

Any idea when that lockup ends? I couldn't find a reference to it in the 10Q or S-3 filings I looked at. We sure could use some concentrated selling to hold the lid on this one.

Ken
