My daughter was an immunologist - not a virologist, but close enough. She worked for research labs in the U.S. and Europe. She usually worked under the umbrella of a hospital or university so it depended on who was providing the funding for their research and that could skew results (especially if pharmaceutical companies were involved). Hate to burst your bubble!

Wow people are really having a lot of trouble comprehending my posts. Am I typing in a foreign language and not realizing it?
I'll say it again, differently. But it means the same:
If you put up a TV editorial personality, a conspiracy theory website written by conspiracy theorists and NOT scientists of any kind at all, the President of the United States (past, present, or future), and my next door neighbor who's a very very nice, smart, clever, fun woman...
against a scientist who has earned accolades from his own peers for the past 40-something years, has had hundreds of peer-reviewed studies and research that has resulted in groundbreaking data and health benefits to the entire world...
I'll take the scientist. Every single time. Even if he's accused of being a politician.
