I think my characterization of your reactions is rather mild compared to
what you tend to produce here. But perhaps I was a little harsh, I'll let
others be the judge of that. If you feel fit to parrot that antibodies
signify protection and can't be bothered to look up citations that clearly
demonstrate the contrary we don't even have to question your motives, do
we ? All we know is that while it may be steady, it's not methodical and
has little to do with pursuit of the truth.
