I can almost feel and hear how difficult it is for you, Eric, to endure this talk about viruses, infection and antibodies. I felt the same way. In principle, such a conversation is rather counterproductive, because Fiala cements the virus lie. How can he be so indoctrinated? How can he dig so deep in the rki files and still not see the core of the problem, the unresolved virus existential question? Such people are called pundits. What a pity.
Edith: perhaps I shouldn't over-interpret this, but it actually seemed to me that Fiala clings to the virus hypothesis to the end or plays down the importance of the existence question. He actually says that several times, which is why I don't have to interpret it, it's in the room.
Yes exactly. He was dancing around the point. There are some people -- men of science, usually -- for whom this is a third rail. It's like questioning whether a wheat cracker in a stone building is really the body of a guy from the year one.
