Grant, thanks for the information. I came away from watching the video with a new understanding of some of the issues surrounding this “plague”. I appreciate the complexity of problems that need to be solved. My mantra lately concerning many of our problems has been “Someone smarter than me needs to figure this out”. This doctor gives me hope that that “someone” is actually out there.
When I become president I will let the private sector develop the solution. A significant cash reward will be offered to whoever comes up with the best treatment/cure. Some grants (not Grant Davies….Im talking money) will be available to assist. Ill allow Grant Davies to help as he will be the Czar of something, haven’t decided the title yet. History has shown if there is money to be made the private sector will find a solution. The private sector would have to prove efficacy of their solution and any solution not proven would fall into categories such as “not proven but working on proving” or “not proven and a terrible possible soliton” All potential solutions would have to go through the same studies or process. No claims of efficacy would be allowed until proven through this same process. If a snake oil salesman thinks they have a solution they would have to go through the same process. The approval process is open to all, even those peddling snake oil. In fact, the snake oil (and others) Are strongly encouraged to go through the process to prove or disprove claims. The solutions and data would be presented to the people and they could decide what solution is best for them.
Politicians would not be allowed to align themselves with a possible solution until its proven through the agreed upon process
This is well written with well organized thoughts. It's too bad I'm not smart enough to figure out a way to short the chances of this going viral, maybe even with leverage. More clear thinking and less political vitriol!

Good evening Grant,
This is well written with well organized thoughts. It's too bad I'm not smart enough to figure out a way to short the chances of this going viral, maybe even with leverage. More clear thinking and less political vitriol!
Thanks Mike. I try to steer clear of political vitriol. Sometimes I slip in a world where almost everything is political.
Just keep up the great clear headed writing; I'll handle the anti-big government socialist oligarchy vitriol all by myself! cheers!
