excellent post - from the 1st video- Dr Faro 's me

excellent post - from the 1st video- Dr Faro 's mentioning of handwashing -and re ties spreading germs from patient to patient before dr's began wearing closed whitecoats -and our various posts about resistance to new regimens-both active resistance by established players w an economic motive to stop new regimen- and passive resistance of routine inertia-

reminds me of a novel I read many decades ago based on a true story about a dr who discovered that dr's lack of washing their hands prior to WW1 and modern plumbing- between patients- even going from cadavers to delivering babies -resulting in high infant mortality- and then when he became an administrator of a hospital he finally had the power to do something about it -ordering drs to wash between patients -greatly reducing patient mortality- and then the practice spread.
The novel was called the citadel and i thought it was set in ca 1910 -similar in some respects to the a j cronin novel of 1937 -maybe it was the same -though seem to be differences

but nanologix is dealing w the same process -discover problem,devise solution-get the word out and overcome active and passive resistance to new regimen- once hospitals start seeing the difference in care resulting from nnlx 's rapid etc tests, then hopefully the same snowball effect,esp if patients choose hospitals who 1st start using the rapid tests

getting test results for gbs in 30 min and susceptibility tests overnight sounds a lot better than 5 days. both for mortality and the $261,000 lifetime cost per patient born w gbs- did he say 30%? of women w gbs- i know some cultures are as high as 75% for various pathogens

so is the problem big enough to overcome resistance in a reasonable period of time-and this of course is just re 1 of many conditions nnlx has much faster tests than those currently being used- just some ramblings of somebody who has no expertise in this field
