The data do not support Scenario B. I agree that things are pretty screwed up at Lidak right now. However, if one were to forget about the company for a minute, forget that there is money involved and just look at the published data on Lidakol from a scientic perspective, one would conclude that the evidence is on the side of Lidakol being an effective treatment for Herpes. Your suggestion that Lidakol is statistically comparable but actually inferior to acyclovir is formally possible. But the data up to this point strongly indicate that the opposite is true. I am not trying to make the data sound good because I own the stock; rather I own the stock because the data look good. I and others have posted numerous summaries of the previously published data earlier on this thread. There has also been a good discussion of statistics on the Yahoo thread between #150-300. One post which is particularly germane to your comment about lies and statistics is: messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com. Since the clinical trial is a fait accompli, this speculation about what the statistics will turn out to be is perhaps superfluous and Lidakol may already be a goner. But the earlier data were really very good.
