Venture capital firm (Kleiner Perkins = Al Gore) set to reap rewards on swine flu…

[NameCharger]

First and foremost, my thoughts & prayers go out to all those affected by this recent health concern.

The swine flu outbreak is likely to benefit one of the most prolific and successful venture capital firms in the United States: Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Thomson Reuters Private Equity Week reported on Friday.

Shares of the two public companies in the firm's portfolio of eight Pandemic and Bio Defense companies -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX.O) and Novavax (NVAX.O) -- jumped Friday on news that the swine flu killed a reported 60 people in Mexico and has infected people in the United States.

...

Novavax can produce a vaccine from an emergent strain of flu virus in 12 weeks, according to CEO Rahul Singhvi. The company has contacted the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to offer help and is trying to contact the Ministry of Health in Mexico, Singhvi said.

Kleiner Perkins typically only invests in early stage start-up technologies. It is best known for its investments in Netscape, Amazon.com (AMZN.O), Google (GOOG.O) and Genentech (ROG.VX).

The Menlo Park, California-based VC firm launched a $200 million Pandemic Bio Defense fund in 2006 to invest in technology companies working on drugs, diagnostics and inoculations against flu-like diseases.

Makes me wonder if this recent "swine flu" outbreak is engineered killing, orchestrated by the elite, tugging the puppet strings of the mainstream media to induce public panic.

The threat of a pandemic leads people to make irrational, fear based decisions. By summer we should hear about a "swine virus vaccine" which will have the herd lining up in droves to get injected and make profits soar.

Do a goolgle search for strange deaths of microbiologists (without quotes). Alex Jones will be all over this. Now back to coasttocoastam :music:

I think most things that happen in the world are orchastred by the people with POWER-MONEY-Knowledge becuase the public is stupid and can be lead by its nose. Many companies made massive profits from SARS and the same thing will happen here.

I have to agree with you guys. I'm quite amazed at the intelligence of the average domainer versus the average Joe. Plenty of people here can think on their own -- something which is hard to find in the offline world.
