A question.

Those who r infected with HIV, I would assume, are quickly put on the cocktail of prot. Inhibs. I don't know the percentages, but if those who go on these drugs are able to delay or stop the onset of AIDS related diseases (eg KS), doesn't lgnd have a problem in that their disease bases is shrinking before their eyes?

KS in older people(non hiv) is evident but they still represent a small number.

What is lgnd's projection of sales of P-gel if approved?
