This article is a sight for sore eyes. How wonderful it would be if the tests for interferon beta and the cysteine protease inhibitors were applicable for patients.

I was surprised it did not get more press. It looks like we might at least have our foot in the door.

I do not think it is a bio weapon but I am beginning to think we are not getting the full story. I think certain "people" are scared.

first its 'kids crossing a busy highway' --then its 'they were not using the crosswalk.

I see it as a LACK OF CROSSING GUARDS.

Memo to HQ:

GUARDS are to stationed on BOTH sides of all highways within the city limits at the time kids go to school AND when they are let back out in the afternoon. HARD ATTACK 51 is to fund said effort."
