So why after 2 years of the Defense Dept knowing about Brilacidin have they not progressed past the "study" stage as we currently are with the 20 viruses being checked out as of last Sept or so with no data so far? Can't take that long for petri dishes to show yea or nay as to B working against the viruses. Labs working at snails pace to keep lab busy and people employed?

Clinical trials IMO are one major clusterf***. If you are testing a drug that shows true promise and people are not getting adverse affects from it yet it is showing no improvement for patients, why not immediately change the trial to try something a bit different (as in new dosage) rather than running the same thing for a hell of a lot more patients and ending up with a big 0 to show for it? Only thing you guarantee is another wasted year instead of at least getting data as to how much dosage people could actually handle, # of dosings, when it has to be administered to be effective, etc? Or is that the game, put new drugs on permanent hold until they partner up with a big boy?

I for one am scared for the large amount of money I have in IPIX. I believe in the science,all other factors not so much any more

Govt already has empirical data on how SOC drugs are working so why run them again in blind trials - especially when they then show vastly different results from what they have been showing in real life? I have no belief in them myself nor in the CROs. Too much money and too many people willing to fudge results for the right price.
