Another reason for delay?

From a non-scientist, appears something is not right here, surely one has to believe that after the October 12 news release at least one patient would have been dosed by now.  Nearly three months later and we continue to wait, something is wrong.  Either a major screwup in the screening process with patients saying no (really doubt that) OR the current batch of Apabetalone has gone bad.  Shelf life?  Bad mix? Contamination?   Apabetalone may not be available.  Only real explanation I can see. 

I read somewhere is takes three months to create Apabetalone.  What other explanation do we have?  Any guesses?  Where is the wonder drug?.  Sidebar
