A team at Retroscreen Virology, an institute associated with the
University of London, said that the (Sambucol Elderberry) extract was
at least 99 per cent effective against the H5N1 virus and significantly

neutralized the infectivity of the virus in cell cultures.

" Dr Madeleine Mumcuoglu, the Israel-based developer of Sambucol, said the
good results confirmed her earlier findings on the product[...] Dr Mumcuoglu
stressed that the results could in no way demonstrate a benefit for humans
infected with the bird flu strain that has killed more than 70 people,
mostly in South East Asia, since the outbreak began in 2003. Nor will she be
able to test it in a human trial."

Now, how many Billions of people live in South East Asia?

How many years was that?

Does that qualify as a pandemic, epidemic, or just a blip.
