Just got home from a trip, haven't had the opportunity to check out anything on AVIR. As posted, the issue isn't the drug but the manufacturing. Ignoring Howlins statement, a flu vaccine with AVIR's delivery method would have world-wide application, involving millions of people so it should be expected that the FDA would have special concerns about the manufacturing process since it is my understanding the drug is currently produced overseas. I need to check this further, when I have time. Nice to see it bounce back today. If you bought yesterday at the close, you should be happy today.
