**[2010-02-11T20:15:00] Anthony S. Fauci:** Heidi: I spoke to Richard a little while ago and he asked me to focus mainly on the Introduction and the Multi-Use Principle, which I have done. I will leave it to others to examine their components in order to get this back to you quickly since I know that you have to prepare something tonight for the POTUS. The document looks quite good. I have made a few changes that are tracked and have explained why I have done this. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you need to speak with me later. I am available. You were an amazing model of flexibility today. I hope that my comments on the phone call helped. Best regards, Tony

**[2010-02-11T21:16:51] Anthony S. Fauci:** Francis: As per our conversation yesterday, here is the document that we have been working on for several weeks with multiple revisions. You will see my final edits that I put into the document today. As mentioned to you over the phone, the exercise morphed over weeks from a consideration of how we can improve the process of the development of countermeasures against emerging infections and bioterror threats to a new "bold" strategy. This process has been driven by Heidi Avery, Deputy to John Brennan, in the Homeland Security component of the new National Security Council.
