I still don't understand your point. I responded to what he wrote. I said it was at best a bunch of theories. What part of it do you think has some basis in reality? Why should we trust it? BTW, I don't understand how the self reporting is even relevant, since the patients didn't know if they had a placebo. Even if all those explanations are true, does that mean the vaccine didn't damage the immune systems, given that in a blind experiment you got 4.4 times as much disease?
You said some piece of evidence I cited didn't support the point I thought it did, so I still want to know what one that is.
I guess you are saying the fact that the only RCP test ever conducted on a vaccine (to the best of our knowledge) that looked at actual health, found the patients getting the vaccine much less healthy, (which by the way is supported by lots of other results showing vaccines do collateral damage to the immune system, its hardly an outlier) which is the evidence I cited,
you are I guess saying this didn't support my case because the authors of the study wrote various speculations that might have partially explained some of it, although a factor of 4.4 takes a lot of explaining, so I doubt it.
Is that your point? Can you spell it out?
I thought I was being explicit. You wrote:
You wrote that in response to a comment which specifically talked about the study in question, but made no effort to actually address the point about that study. That's completely failing to engage in the argument in question and makes one have to wonder if you actually read what he wrote to notice he talked about that same study.
