Key question: Can poker-faced Nader keep quiet once he knows the unblinded data?
NO, NO, NO, a thousand times NO!
Someone should hack into his desktop computer webcam.
Not for inside stock info.
For tremendous entertainment value.
In the minutes before the data is unblinded he will be squirming in his chair staring at his screen.
Within moments of unblinding, Nader will know the result on the primary endpoint.
If total success, he will launch vertically from his chair and propel himself into the ceiling, where he will crash through and become stuck at least momentarily.
But at this moment being crashed/stuck in the celing will be no prob whatsoever, and with another great burst of energy he will wriggle free and crash back down into his chair bringing a great deal of ceiling debris with him.
Great live television, I think. Someone should hack in.
Maybe one of the employees will have the presence of mind to turn on their phone camera and record the situation, just in case.
Even in the absence of total succes, it would still be great live television.
Regardless of total success or live TV or not, Cytodyn will have a hard time keeping the unblinded primary mortality endpoint a secret.
If total success, poker-faced Nader won't last three seconds on the next Proactive video.
(As a side benefit, interested investors will never have to sit through 15 minutes of re-hashed HIV, cancer, NASH, BLA or whatever before getting to the real news.)
If total success, Nader's office has a window and everyone outside will be able to see the wide grin on his face, to say nothing of the whole crash-into-the-ceiling-and-recover.
Probs it will never come to a Proactive video or even a PR.
What will Nader look like when he walks to the parking lot from his office the first time after unblinding? My guess is anyone will be able to read the CD12 result from his gait.
And what about the other CYDY employees at the office?
What will they do when they see Nader receive the unblinded data?
Will they think: Sure Nader can keep his poker-face for three weeks while we crunch some numbers, dot some i's, and cross some t's?
Seems to me the most merciful option for everyone at the office is to PR unblinded primary endpoint result within no more than half an hour after the data are unblinded
