didn't mean to offend

but and as I posted before, I have the utmost respect for researchers and I know they don't do this for the money, or lack there-of. However, the fact remains that they do have trouble recruiting and it is the FDA that has tied everyone's hands in trerms of approval process and design protocal. I'm aware of the stats ie 1:8, and am appauled that the FDA isn't reacting faster in fast tracking some of these outstanding programmes to bring this epidemic to an end. What do we need, 1 in 4? Watch how fast vaccines get approval for a non-existing but predicted flu pandemic, where the mortality rate will probably be less than what we are taliking about. Sorry, I'm getting bitter and twisted now so.....
Signing off with love,
Al
