If the patent’s expired, they should just offer to send innoculated swabs to anyone who asks. Then we can innoculate our loved ones with a kiss, and so on …

I remember reading about this years and years ago. I wondered what had happened with it. Bummer.

If this was patented in 1985, that patent would have expired in 2005 so I’m not really sure what you’re on about. This whole thing screams “VC scam” to me so I haven’t bothered looking into the actual patents, but I’m sure there’s more to it than just “person sat on a patent for 20 years”.
