Well,
There is SOME unique credibility here that is often overlooked
by the scientific community and the public
This evidence,



Excerpt from the Jefferies slide
June 2017:

GAIT HAS IMPROVED
103001 PATIENT REMEMBERING SOMETHING HE WOULDN'T HAVE PREVIOUSLY

Though anecdotal,
Is becoming more and more important
Especially in the eyes of the FDA

Science and medicine have made giant leaps in the past 10-20 years
Unfortunately,
Drug, management, prevention, cure etc research haven't experienced the same exponential growth

New drugs and treatments
On average
Have been bandaids (at best) in most cases
And mostly failures altogether

But now
With breakthroughs in trial design, DNA, even Artificial Intelligence, etc...
new and exciting doors have opened

Failure can be detected and explained more rapidly and more accurately than ever before
And so can our ability to adapt
There are many instances where something good has been misinterpreted as initially bad

(Ok some if not most of these are wishy washy at best but that's part of the point)

McFarlane commented that the patients quality of life etc is more important than great data we fully understand

If quality of life improves
And no serious side effects are observed
... Should be approved ASAP

I believe many will be surprised at how quickly things can and I believe WILL change

Turning point is approaching... wink

All imho of course

Patience And
Perspective
