[Poor Man -]

Is this new?

They’ve always treated common shareholders like nothing more than pieces of paper that they have to maneuver around.

Regardless, It’s such a cynical way they’ve treated the public investors and patient advocates, but hey, at least they bought a Platinum sponsorship from ABTA this year.

It is not up to them whether their previously recorded talk would air at a conference.

And it is not possible now to second guess why they decided a journal article would be better than just announcing the results. Some speculate it is that results were bad. Given the interim, I think mathematically that is incredibly unlikely. I think rather it is possible that the results were so solid, and they know the challenge of very good results is just as high as marginal results in terms of the amount of criticism and pushback one might get raising all manner of scurrilous and hard to disprove suggestive excuses, that it may have become clear that announcing results without a fully articulated journal article might even backfire despite very good results. I am not saying that definitely happened, but I do think that would be a reasonable mindset if that were the case.

That sponsorship is like NWBO management’s version of purchasing an indulgence.

The platinum sponsorship was a quid pro quo for the speaking slot last year. That's how it works. Every placement they've ever had they had to pay for, including the 2018 interim data report in the Journal of Transcendentalist Superstitional Fantasy.

This whole thing is a frigging scam, and the company is now in hiding. Anyone should be able to see they made all of those promises last year and then they got a whiff of the data. Oof. Time to go underground. You'd think for once they would do the right thing by posting the failed TLD, but no. They just can't bring themselves to put an end to it all. The people running this company are a total joke. Oh, and they are liars, too. Amazing it's taking some people so long to figure it out.
