So I respect your input Breech. I do differ in the vested interest argument. Most if not all financial analysts are in general agreement that the drug companies will not reap much financial reward for this. In fact Gilead re-opened modestly but the market in general went up much more on the news. And I know you didn't say it as such, but many have vilified drug companies in the past but the reality in this case is the expected profits of a treatment or vaccine compared to the dollars spent in research is but a sliver to their every day business. The cure isn't expected to be much financial rewards to drug companies.
