I'm a bit behind on reading the list so if this has already been addressed, forgive me, but...
I'm confused about the difference between nebulizing and using an inhaler. If I understand it correctly as you appear to imply below , one could use BB's oxygen tank/air brush method as an inhaler.

Despite instituting the most extreme safety precautions in hospitals, physicians and nurses are still contracting SARS. They are having difficulty understanding exactly the many ways it is spread. It has been found that it is possible for SARS to survive on surfaces for up to 48 hours. These are some of the concerns that contributed to the decision that only inhalers would be used for any breathing treatments. I am introducing several ideas that fall outside of conventional medicine. One of these ideas is CS. I have no chance of getting them to even entertain the notion of CS if they hear the word "nebulize". I'm leaning toward IV delivery. But I need some more info on dosing for that. The last thing needed with SARS patients is a Herx reaction. This would probably kill them. I was also thinking about the possibility of pressurizing CS like an Albuterol inhaler and using it with a chamber with a spacer. Does anyone have any idea if CS could effectively be pressurized? Brooks? Frank? Regards, Catherine
