re EMFP - hi K - I don't have a medical background so all I can go by is what I read and analyze. There is a ton of stuff on it that you can get on RB mostly. Also the website. Then check out the filings.

They claim their nanotechnology kills viruses and, when used with the filter, is really something very much different and ahead of the N95 masks. I have no capability of claiming it's true or false. Many of the posters on The Microcap Kitchen have ordered the masks and filters and have commented favorably.

It's been under development for years so apaprently it's not that easy to duplicate. Or there may be issues that the billion dollar companies want to avoid. In other words, is it really worth it for them to have a "better mask" when the N95 masks are standard and their economies of scale give them the sales at lower cost as you suggest at the end of your post.

As the virus will have to mutate several times before it becomes pandemic, if ever, apparently there is no way to test any product or even vaccine, until it happens in order to state that it is a product that prevents the "bird flu."

As we know in microcap investing, perception is reality and the perception is that their masks are on a different level from those of others. There have been many attempts to bash it but, as you see by the chart, it's been a huge gainer for many of us, with predictions being that it will continue while "bird flu" is in the news.

Insider buying by a very wealthy individual and knowledgable investor have helped, as well as high level contacts with the military and with Japan. The mask is not their only product but it has taken over because of the buzz.

I guess it comes down to this. If it works, you may be right and we will see the big companies copying them or even buying them out. But for a tiny company, it doesn't take much to generate numbers that can create a multi bagger.
