Is it worth having a punt on the manufactures of this tammy flu stuff? the Swine/Bird Flu anti viral?

No. Buying a few shares now is not enough. You want to be Donald Rumsfeld, who has huge stocks in the company (Gilead Sciences of California) and who had them already in 2005 when he persuaded the US Govt to buy $1bn of Tamiflu.

Sales were probably saturated so it's a good thing for the company and Don that a deadly flu came along now.
