mr cook speculates

It's rare to see speculation from the boss, but in the media today I read:

"Mr Cook said the US regulatory authority would require a replication of the Asian Phase III tests in a western market.

But, he said, in the event of a "turn for the worst" in the incidence of swine flu, the US Food and Drug Administration may accept the studies done elsewhere in the world for approval under emergency circumstances."

Here it is in black and white, the first indication of some sort of accelerated approval process. Who knows what has happened behind closed doors, but it sure isn't like Mr Cook to speculate (we know what he thinks about speculators).

I like it! Keep up the good work at Biota!!

An interesting Blog...
