of this drug family for decades. I no longer have access to a medical library and searches online have been clear as mud, but I have a sneaking suspicion that using it for other conditions has shown those properties are dose dependent and if you get the dose that high, you risk poisoning the patient to death.

The fact that they're safe and effective at low dose for autoimmune disease doesn't mean all dosages are safe. He won't lose his investment, between people with autoimmune disease and those with susceptible strains of malaria, the drug will always have a steady demand. He just won't be allowed to make a killing because doctors will end the studies quickly and publish their data.

Antiviral drug cocktails should show more promise, but again, doses have to be high to kill this little bastard.
