Do you have any reason to believe that Belshe might have an undisclosed bias, such as a relationship with Medimmune?

Biomaven was simply reporting an AP story, which is of interest to most readers of this thread. If you believe Belshe has or may have a relationship with MEDI, shouldn't you be doing the detective work rather than ask Bio to do it for you?

Do you have any such bias?

Well I do own a modest call position in MEDI that I established last week (I had exited the stock previously). But I tried hard (without success) to put my mouth (nose) where my money was and actually get a Flumist shot for myself and my family because I personally believe that the Flumist is more likely to work given the mismatch of strains.

So if by "biased" you are implying that I'm pushing a view about Flumist that I don't personally believe in order to plug a stock I'm holding, you are flat wrong. (Anyhow I know better than to try to pump a $7 billion market cap stock - if I was trying to pump a stock, rest assured I'd pick something an awful lot smaller <g>).
