I appreciate that they don't "prove" anything, one way or the other, about the drug but, nevertheless, they are certainly remarkable and not without value. I hope the FDA seriously takes such episodes into consideration for early approval, especially since there does not seem to be any substantive downside for the patients.

The FDA doesn't work that way. Look at the vitamin industry. They can't make a single claim on their bottles that haven't been proven or the FDA nails them. And this is just for preventative applications, let alone a claim to actually cure a disease.

the downside factor is key point, what i found in my ampligen research was that in canadien tests, the length of each treatment varied between doctors. the length of each treatment ideally was 1/2 hour. read one patient who had negative reactions to ampligen reived his treatments in one hour durations not proper 1/2 hour, seems by slowing down speed of iv causes soreness and discomfort.
olsten administering tests will turn out to be big plus for heb,
i didnt realize olsten agreed to lay out money to purchase the supply of ampligen they will be administering, lot of choice info re alliances heb has in sec filing from 8/17, most of those alliances entail a way to produce massive amounts of ampligen at far lower costs to meet expected future world wide demand for ampligen.
