FDA is now saying don't expect this anytime soon. They will want to do a bunch of trials and that will take forever probably. |

I think ultimately the optics are worse than the actual threat (being outdoors in open spaces w/ high 'ventilation' and higher heat/humidity is going to SEVERELY restrict the viruses ability to survive outside a host and thus infect people), but there will be some significantly diminished level of transmission that is frankly, unnecessary. 1,000 people riding the subway is probably FAR more dangerous than 10,000 people on a sandy beach, but it's still just not a good look and it's an unreasonably reckless risk. |

Hamas mentioned certain demographics don't respond well or suffer adverse side effects due to these cocktails (IIRC) and that would seem to suggest that maybe they're going to have to firm up data before they simply take their hands off the wheel and allow it to be used across the board. Especially if, as I believe Hamas suggested, there are concerns over growing resistance and thus long-term declines in efficacy. But it would seem that they could allow targeted applications fairly quickly. And public pressure will mount exponentially to do exactly that. |

Didn't this administration sign a bill for this type of thing "Right to Try". maybe provisions of that law could be used to go around the FDA
