For me, APT is an investment. I'm not hoping for things to get worse, mutate, etc. What I do hope for is that my investment in this company can benefit in helping others. During these uncertain times, protective apparel and masks will protect and help those who are in contact with or ill themselves. I have held this stock well before all the hype and added along the way and contemplated selling at its high. I didn't, and have watched the stock retreat to where it's at now. Perhaps I am a "bagholder", "don't fall in love with a stock", or any other label you want to place on it. As I said before, I'm invested a company who creates products that help people, and are solid fundamentally so why would I sell?

It's disconcerting to see comments on both sides of the fence; those pushing the mutations and pandemics as well as those who simply want to bash the company. It's easy to lump this company into the swine flu index and confuse APT with the several small bio companies that don't even have approval or a product for that matter. Masks are one thing, but if you took away the masks completely I believe Alpha Pro Tech would still be a worthwhile investment.

I rarely post, but read the messages for the small bits of useful info that sometimes does make its way on here. Just my honest opinion. Good luck to all of you with your investments and health.
