they are the bristol-myers and the gilead's that are the giant companies. when you look at the junior biotech space, they spend 70% of their money on r&d. if they goes to -- go to phase two, they are already outperforming the bigger companies. with this whole world of coronavirus, looking for elixirs, all sorts of new inventions, it is really good space in terms of disruptive technology and biotech. getting a great example in september. gilead rose 300% that week. get awas another one to revived bristol-myers, the 80% jump. they are taking. i really like the health care. i just feel like macro is the best backdrop for those to perform. paul: i know you look at china story as well but what are the risks there as well? especially when president-elect joe biden is sworn in? more more sanctions, maybe regulatory oversight, what are the risks there? >> you bring up a really great point. i like china because i think they have proven that they have recovered, they are on their way to recovering at of the virus. only majore economies you have expanded. isical china

they want to get into the gilead sciences and the googles of the world to steel that research, is -is- steal that research, is that right. >> it's a scandal to me that we have trained so many of the chinese communist party's brightest minds to go back to china, to compete for our jobs, to take our business and ultimately to steal our property and design weapons and other devices that can be used against the american people. i think we need to take a very hard look at the visas that we give to chinese nationals to come to the united states to study especially at the post graduate level in advanced scientific and technological fields. if chinese students want to study shake spear and the federalist papers, that's what they need to learn from america. they don't need to learn quantum computing and artificial intelligence from america. maria: coming up, the lengths the chinese communist party will go to get a leg up on america. eric swalwell and his special friend from china who helped get him elected to congress and hunter biden and his e-mails asking for millions of dollars in payout us

change things, devote his life to this and he also comes up with a detailed plan for the league of gilead rights to reverse -- resist the fugitive slave act. what was his vision for the league and was violence always a part of the plan or did he begin like lincoln thinking we can do this in a different way? >> john brown's views on slavery and emancipation and finally evolution evolved over time. he was born in 1800, lincoln was born in 1809. they were both born at a time when slavery was considered by many people in the united states to be something of a necessary evil and how necessary and how evil depended on where you were. by 1800 most northern states have eliminated slavery, not because they had been seized by a fit of morality but because their economies had evolved in a way where slavery was unnecessary if not downright counterproductive so they could focus on the hunt slavery parts of slavery and say we don't want anything to do it anymore but southern states to the surprise of the founding fathers, thomas jefferson, george washington, james madison who all thought slavery would

we have gilead's remdesivir.nough, they are not getting used early enough in the course of disease -- >> martha: but they are available to anyone who wants them? and are they ridiculously expensive, or can people get them reasonably? >> as the president promised, the antibodies are free. this is for the viewers and doctors watching. if you are over 65, or if you are comorbid and have a risk of severe complications or hospitalization, talk to your doctor. after getting a positive test, and ask about whether you can be put on these drugs, because they can help prevent hospitalization, severe consequences, or in the case of remdesivir, shorten your hospitalization stay. we have a surplus of these products. they are not getting used. we need to keep people out of the hospital. >> martha: yeah, so people should request them and the doctors should prescribe them. that's very interesting. they are readily available and they are free. i think that is really important to get out there. you know, this new strain of covid t

things, diverges life to this and he comes up with a detailed plan for what he called the league of gilead-ites to resist the fugitive slave passed in 1950 . he was violent always forget even lincoln saying we can do thisin a different way ? >> john brown views on slavery and emancipation evolved over time. he was born in 1800, lincoln was born in 1809 so lincoln is a little bit younger but they were both born at time when slavery was considered by many people in the united states to be something of a necessary evil . and how necessary and how evil and on where you were. by 1800 most northern states had eliminated slavery. not because they had been seized by a fit of morality but because their economies have evolved in a way where slavery was unnecessary if not downright counterproductive. so they can focus on the unsavory parts of slavery and say we don't want to have anything to do with it anymore . but southern states in fact to their surprise of the founding fathers, thomas jefferson, george washington, james madison all slavery would effectively die out in the south the way it had died out

and he also comes up with a detailed plan for what he called the league of gilead -ites. to resist to the fugitive slave act, that was passed in 1950. so what was his vision for the league and two was violence always a part of that plan? what he began like lincoln, and think what we can do this in a different way? john brown. >> john brown's views on slavery and emancipation evolved over time. he was born in 1800, lincoln was born in 1809. lincoln is a little bit younger. but they were both born at a time when slavery was considered by many people in the united states, to be something of a necessary evil. and how necessary and evil depended on where you work. by 1800, most northern states had eliminated slavery. not to because they had been seized by a fit of morality, but because their economies had evolved in a way where slavery was unnecessary if not downright counterproductive. so they could focus on the unsavory parts of slavery and say, we don't want to have anything to do that anymore. but seven states, in fact to the surprise of the founding fathers, thomas jeffer

those customers very sticky the fda likes to see consistency, and they also have large customers like gilead, and the economics i think are really good. each new drug approval is $28 million of revenue per drug, per year, and management estimates an 85% success rate, so there's a lot of good things to like about this company, and i think it's a leader in a rapidly growing market >> bk, you got a question for the general? >> i do for the general. general, love the pitch. quick question, though what kind of mote does this company have around there? because you've got major logistics companies that could just hop right into that we see fedex building and u.p.s. building cold storage. why is this company so special sm. >> yeah, i think part of it's technology, and part of it's just the speed at which they've moved. if you look at their debt on the balance sheet, that's a little bit of a black eye for the company right now, but they've been using it to scale to meet future demand, so i think it makes the business that much more attractive. they now have 30 facilities around the world they have pa
