NEW YORK — SIGA Technologies, Inc. (SIGA) (NASDAQ: SIGA), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
“SIGA’s financial results for the first nine months of 2021 include approximately $13 million of international sales, which represents a more than fourfold increase in comparison to the comparable period in 2020.
Additionally, we continue to work with Meridian in a new foreign jurisdiction toward finalizing an order that would be similar in size to the initial orders received from Canada in 2020 and early 2021. The timing of the completion of the order has been and may continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Phil Gomez, CEO of SIGA. “Looking forward to the fourth quarter of 2021, we are coordinating with our supply chain to deliver up to approximately $113 million in total of oral TPOXX® to the U.S. government, almost 30% of which was delivered in October. This progress highlights the strong and growing revenue base of TPOXX, as well as its continuing importance in orthopox health security preparedness.”

Our lead product is TPOXX, also known as tecovirimat and ST-246, an orally administered and IV formulation antiviral drug for the treatment of human smallpox disease caused by variola virus. TPOXX is a novel small-molecule drug and the U.S. government maintains a stockpile of TPOXX for treatment of smallpox. Over the past decade, the U.S. government has procured, or has current orders for, approximately $705 million of TPOXX for national preparedness. The oral formulation of TPOXX was approved by the FDA for the treatment of smallpox in 2018. The full label is here: dailymed.nlm.nih.gov. In September 2018, SIGA signed a contract potentially worth more than $600 million with BARDA for procurement and development related to both oral and intravenous formulations of TPOXX.

A virus that kills every one of its victims, by wiping out part of their immune system, has been accidentally created by an Australian research team. The virus, a modified mousepox, does not affect humans, but it is closely related to smallpox, raising fears that the technology could be used in biowarfare.

The discovery highlights a growing problem. How do you stop terrorists taking legitimate research and adapting it for their own nefarious purposes?

The Australian researchers had no intention of producing a killer virus. They were merely trying to make a mouse contraceptive vaccine for pest control. “But it’s a good way to show how to alter smallpox to make it more virulent,” says Ken Alibek, former second-in-command of the civilian branch of the Soviet germ-warfare programme.

Mousepox normally causes only mild symptoms in the type of mice used in the study, but with the IL-4 gene added it wiped out all the animals in nine days. “It would be safe to assume that if some idiot did put human IL-4 into human smallpox they’d increase the lethality quite dramatically,” says Jackson. “Seeing the consequences of what happened in the mice, I wouldn’t be the one who’d want to do the experiment.”

To make matters worse, the engineered virus also appears unnaturally resistant to attempts to vaccinate the mice. A vaccine that would normally protect mouse strains that are susceptible to the virus only worked in half the mice exposed to the killer version. “It’s surprising how very, very bad the virus is,” says Ann Hill, a vaccine researcher from Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland. If bioterrorists created a human version of the virus, vaccination programmes would be of limited use.

RED ALERT: Bill Gates drops threat of terrorist Smallpox attack... Wow, this didn't take long... Bill Gates drops his threat less than 24 hours from this: Message #35321 from SliderOnTheBlack at 11/3/2021 6:54:46 PM re: Republicans sweeping Virginia elections... "Hanging on to the political power that weaponizing Covid gives them - is now a matter of political life and death for the Democrat party, the Deep State and the globalists. And that makes the coming weeks and months very dangerous... Here's another reason the coming weeks and months could be very dangerous - think false flag, a terror attack (which they've been hyping), a massive cyber attack, a market crash, or them dropping "the virus" that the smirking chimp Bill Gates tells us "will be the one we can't ignore." =============================================================================== These articles are all from the last 48 hours... dailymail.co.uk Remember this... Gates is calling for "Germ Games" now... A real threat, or just another psyop to get the government to keep giving him billions so his tax exempt foundations can continue to make "20 X returns" on his pharma investments - which he said were the biggest investment returns of his career... (all tax free!!!). Remember the Anthrax attacks on the two hold-out Senators (Patrick Leahy &Tom Daschle) that were preventing the passage of the Patriot Act? As it turned out, V.P. Dick Cheney and his entire staff were already on prophylactic Cipro, the drug used to treat Anthrax. All bio-weapon research and development is ALWAYS done concurrently with developing and testing antidotes.They absolutely would already have one for what ever version of whatever they're about to drop. There were articles in all the DC newspapers talking about how the top key journalists for the NY TImes, WAPO, as well as the TV news anchors were all given a heads on getting Cipro... as it instantly became unobtainable after the attacks... I posted the article here on SI years ago, can't find it now, but the point is - think about the leverage they have in offering political, media, and corporate insiders "the cure" in return for compliance and support... So what to do? It's certainly worth making sure gas tanks are never below 3/4ths full.... and that you have the ability to shutter in place for up to 3-4 weeks in a real bio-attack and/or make sure your grab and go-bags are staged and ready so you can be out the door and on the road before the highways shutdown from panic and congestion as they do during hurricane evacuations. Think outside the box... just because you have city water doesn't mean those workers who are needed to keep water and/or the electricity flowing will show up during a bio-emergency. You can stack and rotate 20 cases of bottled water for less than $100. Cheap insurance and it all it will take is a 30-minute trip to the local grocery store. Bottom line? - review those preps, just the basics... water, food and the ability shelter in place for 2-4 weeks in the event of an actual bio-attack on the level of smallpox or anthrax. SOTB PS: It's not just the Virginia elections and them trying to hang on to power by keeping Covid weaponized... It's the rising tide of a conservative backlash and protests that while late, are finally starting to gain momentum with anti-masking, anti-CRT, and anti-pedo grooming school protests now nationwide... Not to mention the threat from the Durham investigation now zeroing in on Hillary and key players in the Obama administration... as well as the growing resistance to the vaccines mandates where police, fire, EMTs healthcare workers and truck drivers are going to create not just political and social chaos by refusing the forced vax - but accelerate a collapse in the supply chain that Main Street will not tolerate as they now know its all been orchestrated by design. And remember this... They always do what they say they are going to do. They never issue warnings like this as mere bluffs... especially when they originate from major conferences, with "War Game" exercises planned... They did exactly what they said they would do in the Lockstep 2010 White Paper as well as their Event 201 War Games... Gates just got back from a European Tour with G20 leaders and the COP25 conference in Glasgow, Scotland where he may have just received the blessing for an attack to stop the growing political backlash against the Covid forced vax mandates... Smallpox and Anthrax are an entirely different game from Covid... The military will engage in forced vax and 99% of the population will comply, and resistors will not be tolerated. If you don't "war game" your own responses and preparations for these possibilities... you will be completely at their mercy and it will be too late to do anything about it. PPS: The super antibiotic Cipro is the treatment for Anthrax, but Gates is warning about Smallpox... The panic from Anthrax or Smallpox will literally be 10 x that of the initial Covid panic, it will be chaos beyond belief because people will literally be dropping dead in the streets for real this time. There is no current treatment for Smallpox (see Mayo Clinic info below) but, depending on the strain - many may still have some immunity due to having received smallpox vaccinations as children. Also, for those frozen in normalcy bias... thinking governments and oligarchs would never unleash such virulent and deadly weapons on humanity.. you might want to go back and watch a few episodes about all the chemical warfare during WW I as well as the videos on the actual stockpiles of US bio-weapons recovered from bunkers during the search for Saddam's Anthrax labs.
