Thanks. You will notice that no one has argued with my figures. I posted the figures on Monday, and coincidently the Wall Street Journal had an article that day about the influenza outbreak in Hawaii and that it is time to to have a shot. The relevance to my post is that they mentioned the swine influenza where there was a nationwide campaign to get people to get innoculated. The year was 1976. Evidently some people became ill with a condition with a fancy name. The article went on to say that some people can still remember that, and are hesitent to have the shot. Evidently there is a risk group for influenza and of that group "58% of the population over 65 and 30% of the population under 65 get the shot." So my strawhorse number of 15% of the population that would seek an h-pylori test is probably way low. My 20% market share for Quidel is probably high. Remember it is thought that that 50% of the US population over 50 have h-pylori. I just caught the tail end of a CNN bit on it Monday night. I had just tuned to that channel and all I heard was "-and the ulcer is cured."
