Rebecca was asked about sales in Thailand at the last AGM. She didn't put a number on it (surprise) but seemed to indicate they were very low and also that few could afford it. My guess is that it is not marketed aggressively. As far as foreign sales, you have to remember that WF10 is delivered intravenously which means a hospital visit. If it were a pill, I could imagine foreigners loading up and taking it home but how many actually want to check into a hospital in Thailand. Desperate patients will always find there are many other experimental treatments that can be tried at home. Also remember that the reported WF10 trials have been tiny and they haven't resulted in any main stream media coverage.

Oxo also sells a lower strength formula of WF10 as a wound healing treatment in a number of countries. I asked DMX what the revenues were (back in Peter Block days) and they wouldn't say (another surprise). I also asked if DMX would market it in Canada but Peter indicated that the product probably couldn't be approved in Canada or the U.S. without further trials so there were no plans to do this.

John,

I think Bluejay covered the points nicely -- I have nothing to add.

Hi John

Friends who make Thailand one of their vaction destination say the Thai's exhibit sincere hospitality. Its very, very affordable and outstanding service. Would have to check out what 16 weeks accomodation would cost though. As far as I understand, accomodation and food, it'd be cheap.

Majority of tourist, at least in the resorts are from Europe.
