Actually the problem was that even this possible effect was only demonstrated in one study, and was not obeservable in others. That didn't stop governments starting to stockpile $billions of the stuff.

Even in the best of times, the systems that lead to and regulate drug and medical device...

Well that is one thing we can agree on!

At the start the information was coming from China - and that has since been shown to be as unreliable as some of their junk products. Even so no study has shown 98% asymptomatic. Some studies have suggested a 2% death rate, although that depends...
