Geez, I didn't post the article quoting Dr. Romero, John White did. Are you sure about this Howard? Dr. Romero must really be the Joker if he thinks it is a cure for the common cold. Well I guess your the expert, too bad Mr. Haney who wrote the article didn't consult you.....I suppose this guy isn't credible either "There have been a number of anti-picornavirus agents over the past 25 years, but they've had all sorts of problems," said Dr. Mark Pallansch, an enterovirus expert at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "Pleconaril is the first true, viable product that is potentially licensable." Or "Pleconaril represents a class of drugs that were designed with the knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of the virus," says Dr. Catherine Laughlin, chief of virology at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. "It provides a lot of hope for the eventual design of drugs for virtually every viral infection." Not to mention WLA Certainly other drug makers have. However, only one other company appears to be close to ViroPharma for now. Agouron Pharmaceuticals, a part of Warner-Lambert, is experimenting on 900 cold victims to see if its nasal spray, code-named AG7088, will speed their recovery. Howard you response is typical....shoot the messenger based upon you distorted view.....Yawn Mad2 |
