    You said that your drug OS2966 selectively modulates CD29 (integrin b1 subunit), the same thing occurs naturally with chorionic gonadotropin: "Suppression of β1-Integrin in Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Cells" .Your drug has an advantage in that chorionic gonadotropin is not legally prescribed for ebola & is expected not work well because many people carry an chorionic gonadotropin-antibody. These antibodies were caused when Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone insertion into vaccinations with ingredients that create an immune response to everything in the vaccination. Your on to an revolutionary treatment.

    Here is an reference of using the previous method against EBOLA "Use of human chorionic gonadotropin as an immune-potentiating antiviral agent" Now you have two ways to combat it.

    I need to explain the last entry better. Most of our cells have HERVs. When the virus infects a cell, HERVS are expressed in the cell under right conditions. This is not well understood. The HERVS create an immune response to that cell. Here is an reference: Human endogenous retrovirus-FRD envelope protein (syncytin 2) expression in normal and trisomy 21-affected placenta

    The human fetus should be able to protect itself from Ebola contaminated blood from the mother. Is this going to work better?

    Hello! I am an independent filmmaker and am currently starting to film a documentary about crowdfunding. I think your story is significant in the developing history of crowdfunding. I would very much like to include you and your story in the documentary. How do you feel about this?

    This project absolutely needs to happen. Shawn, thank you for pushing the boundaries of how science can be done. More scientists should optimizing for speed while maintaining the quality of the science. As a community we can't wait around for the government granting agencies or VCs to fund this, when real people are dying. You can count me in for this fight against ebola. You're truly an inspiration! 🚀
