Asthma is on the rise, unfortunately! I live in Seattle. Recently, TV reporters pointed out that the number of children with asthma has increased dramatically. Even my cat has asthma. It is not uncommon my cat's vet says. The forest fires burn again in Asia. Most likely, many, many people will come down with asthma and other respiratory problems. Merck is an excellent company but, in the US, we have many excellent drug companies! We are lucky. Thank you for the information! Surely, Merck will split their stock soon. PS: I would think their medication to partially restore hair to bald men would be a commercial success.
