...drug it makes. But "the actual amount of Tamiflu [Roche] could deliver over the next five years will be very small," notes Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. The U.S. currently has enough Tamiflu stockpiled to treat 2.3 million people. Roche spokesman Terence Hurley says that by the end of this year the Department of Health and Human Services should have in stock enough Tamiflu to treat 4.3 million people. But HHS Secretary Michael Leavitt would like to have enough to treat five times as many. The situation...

Toss mixture into a pita, and sprinkle cheese inside of the pita. Grill the whole thing on a sandwich griller until its golden brown...

Drugs that disrupt the proteasone’s actions are now used to treat certain blood cancers,” he explained. “We’ve uncovered a fundamental cellular process and many applications are seen in many different areas of biology.” When asked for his thoughts about the Academy, Goldberg replied...
