From PFE thread, might be of interest. sfgate.com Incidentally, all this viagra that is sold on black market, excluding counterfeit, where does it come from. In paper here couple of days ago, report that viagra was offered for sale at Glastonbury pop festival - bought by youngsters. Is it that all the guys in US that have rushed for viagra and then quick refills, maybe are passing it on, making a few bucks. Or can a wholesaler but viagra in bulk direct from Pfizer and then .... Sorry I am rambling. DaiS

DiaS, BigShane also mentioned Russian labels some time ago I was studying your projection of product needed which only came up with 1MM per month. I think it is a lot higher 1. If I just take your pop #'s of the countries listed that is 7X that of the US So 1.75 + .25 = 2 MM 2. Then what about Russia India(2nd most pop) Indonesia(3rd most pop) South America Central America Austria New Zealand 3. If Astra and Janssen are better marketers than Vivus then using script #s from US gives low value. 4. I think many other cultures are less squimish than Americans 5. I believe many countries such as Japan and European nations have an older population than US. ( Point is it is the older pop that needs the help.) Their baby boom was earlier than ours. Right after WWII. Ours was delayed by Korea. I was born in 51 My younger sister who was born in 55 had TWICE! as many school mates as I. The bulge of the boomers is really from 1955 - 59 so they are only reaching 40's now. You go downhill fast from 40 to 50.
