>>But you're a fake, trying to piece together something that sounds intelligent from PubMed.<< Actually, its not that hard to verify my credentials. When I was taking my PhD at USC from 1974-78 I was working on feline RNA tumor viruses. First publication was in Nature (with John Stephenson who started Oncogene Sciences) and chief competitor was Ed Skolnik (who left NIH to head up research for MRK). I didn't work with flu until I went to Scripps, but even then it was just to make monoclonals against synthetic peptides. However, one of the flu monoclonals I made became one of the most popular monoclonals in the world. If you google 12CA5 (searches are free) you will get over 20,000 hits, most of which are to articles using 12CA5 google.com if you search 12CA5 monoclonal google.com you will get almost 15,000 hits and almost all will be on the 12CA5 monolconal If you search 12CA5 niman google.com you can get to my 1983 PNAS article descibing the various flu monoclonals I made or the 1984 Cell article describing the location of the epitope in the flu HA trimer. There are many more references (just search HA monoclonal and you will get almost 1/4 million hits) google.com because the monoclonal became so widely used that just about anyone would know which monoclonal you were talking about if you just said HA monolclonal since its the only HA monoclonal that was used in just about every biotech, pharma, or research center that did any molecular biology (the monoclonal was used in epitope tagging procedures worldwide). However, if you want to talk about something sounding fake, its a post saying that a human cold virus can't cause cold symptoms in humans.
