Big Think sat down with Pfizer scientist Manos Perros to talk about pandemics. The chief scientist in the anti-virals department, he's no stranger to developing drugs to counteract deadly diseases like Malaria and TB. In these clips, Perros talks about the decade-long journey developing a drug to treat HIV, as well as the importance of establishing partnerships between pharma, government and academia to advance our defense against Swine Flu. Without this collaboration, Perros worries that H1N1 could be disastrous.

“Researchers have discovered that certain antioxidants and a blend of antioxidants significantly reduces the duplication of both the H1N1 Swine Flu and the H5N1 Avian Bird Flu. Scientists infected mice with the H5N1 bird flu and then administered high doses of resveratrol to them all. They administered doses just as they were getting infected, 3 hours, 6 hours and 9 hours after. 90% of the mice that were administered resveratrol even 3 hours after getting infected suffered little to no sickness.
The key to remember here is that resveratrol is produced by plants to fight infection and disease. That’s the whole purpose of it. Sure it’s been getting a lot of media attention for its life-extending properties, but the truth is – it’s an antibiotic"

there is a cure for every disease its just that docters want large amounts of money for their discovery for any cure which i beleive is unethical. governments use propaganda to influence the normal joe to see it their way so that people end up paying for medical issues. people believe that medical health care is public in canada, but it is aimed towards more private you still end up paying at the end.
