That naming does makes sense, given what the treatment does, although I agree they really need to work on their marketing and come up with a term that won't cause confusion or get the anti-vax folk excitable.

From the article:

"A typical vaccine teaches the human immune system to recognize a virus or bacteria as an enemy that should be attacked. The new “inverse vaccine” does just the opposite: it removes the immune system’s memory of one molecule. While such immune memory erasure would be unwanted for infectious diseases, it can stop autoimmune reactions like those seen in multiple sclerosis, type I diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, or Crohn’s disease, in which the immune system attacks a person’s healthy tissues."

I think it definitely comes down to intent.

I get unexplainable joy watching scammers get scammed on YouTube.

My favourite scam scammer is kitboga.

Are you going up, though?

Or barely treading water as life keeps throwing obstacles at you?

Yeah, those numbers are very questionable.

But it's a good cause, and every bit helps, with possibly a significant difference in the local areas targeted.

As much as I despise Facebook, if you're interested in solar, electricity and generally improving the performance of your home, you should check out the 'My Efficient Electric Home' (MEEH) group.

You had me in the first half...

No worries. I don't think anyone here is expecting a word for word transcript.

Your editorialising is part of the appeal.

I don't really want to hear about Mr Smith and his complaints about his wheely bin.
