I am uncertain about how to interact verbally on these issues - partly because I am quite deaf these days. It as good that Robert's question was...

Autoimmunity is a fact rather than a theory. People with certain diseases have antibodies to their own proteins (or DNA or even sugar epitopes)....

I agree, or at least it is misleading. In a way what is being pointed out is that we might do better with old-fashioned types of vaccine that...
