I keep waiting for some bright lab tech to announce that he has established that colloidal silver is effective in controlling the H5N1 virus.

Of course since silver cannot be patented and controlled by a pharmaceutical company, this potentially obvious alternative to multi-million dollar doomsday stashes of patent drugs may never come to pass.

But just think of how the silvers would be impacted if everybody was trying to stock up on an inexpensive, proven, OTC, homeopathic treatment for Bird Flu.

Silver as an antibiotic. I read they just recently discoverd a way to release its anti bacterial properties in metals, so now they can start manufacturing silver antibacterial stainless steel?

I did not understand the problem or the solution-lol.
