Looks like HealthMed is gone.

LIDAK PHARMACEUTICALS ANNOUNCES TERMINATION OF DISCUSSIONS
3/3/98 9:17

With HealthMed, Inc.

LA JOLLA, Calif., March 3 /PRNewswire/-- LIDAK Pharmaceuticals
(Nasdaq: LDAKA) announced today that it has received correspondence from
HealthMed, Inc. unilaterally terminating all discussions with respect to a
loan transaction. William Jenkins, Chairman of the Special Committee of
independent directors of LIDAK formed to evaluate the HealthMed proposal,
noted that the termination letter was received on the eve of the date
HealthMed had scheduled to conduct due diligence at the Company and shortly
after LIDAK had requested diligence of HealthMed and its financing source
relating to their ability to perform.
Mr. Jenkins expressed disappointment at HealthMed's decision to terminate
discussions. "We were looking forward to determining whether a HealthMed
transaction could be achieved consistent with the best interests of LIDAK
shareholders. Although we remain open to productive dialogue with HealthMed,
the LIDAK Board of Directors intends to pursue aggressively other means to
realize the value of LIDAKOL and the Company's other potential products."
LIDAK Pharmaceuticals is developing therapeutic products designed to treat
virally caused diseases, allergies and asthma, inflammatory disorders and
cancer. LIDAK's topical drug for the treatment of recurrent oral facial
herpes, LIDAKOL, was recently submitted to the United States Food and Drug
Administration for marketing approval.
