glycerol monolaurate (GML), a fatty acid that has proven safe in many products: It's used as a fiber finish in tampons and also as an emulsifier in many foods and cosmetics. Unlike soap-based microbicides, GML is not a so-called surfactant that aims to disrupt the viral membrane, says Haase.

Marx did in foreseeing much of what's happening today:

-- the inevitable monopoly control of production, commerce, and finance;
-- a reserve army of exploited low-paid labor;
-- a class struggle between "haves" and "have-nots;"
-- capitalism's internal contradictions: exploiting and alienating the many for the few;
-- its crisis-prone nature: unstable, "anarchic," ungovernable, self-destructive with booms creating bubbles creating busts, then depressions; and ultimately
-- its inevitable decay and demise because a system so corrupted can't endure; a
socialist revolution (he believed) will replace it based on greater freedom,
inclusion, and equality.
