Just Interesting.

Maybe another hint why BP wants to control nicotine and its relatives in the genus Nicotiana.

The drug is a cocktail of three “humanized” monoclonal antibodies that are manufactured in a group of fragrant plants or bushes known by the genus name Nicotiana.

From this article on the mystery treatment given to the two Ebola virus victims coming to Atlanta.

Some things just make you go hummm.

I thought the unveiling of the "mystery serum" at this time is an interesting coincidence with the African summit going on in DC...

But, wouldn't it be the most amazing irony if the cure does comes from tobacco (or related plant)...

I want ringside seats for this, watching the ANTZ, BP, FDA and their minions tap dance around small P and Reynolds tobacco developing an Ebola drug and the fact they used it in Africa where FDA has no control. Kind of reminds me of how e-cigarettes started.

All of this is anecdotal. There are no long-term or controlled studies. We just don't know. FDA should ban until the long-term public health effects are established. What about the children?..

I'm thinking that having Reynolds labs make the drug was a stroke of genius, the FDA will think twice about raiding that one as they can well afford to fight them in court.

Will we soon hear the Mad Glantz tuttutting about evil BT addicting these ebola victims to nicotine?
