four-fold rise (> or =titre 8) in serum bactericidal antibodies
against the vaccine strain 4-6 weeks after the third vaccination, in
96% (95% confidence interval (CI): 79-100%) of adults, 76% (95% CI:

suggest that MeNZB is safe and is likely to confer protection against
systemic group B meningococcal disease caused by the epidemic strain."

Peter, again, you have fallen into the role of an apologist, rather
than rationally look at the actual references and information.

If Professor Lennon had seen the data before signing it off for the
Vaccine article published in March 2005 (and submitted sometime
earlier) why did she write the letter to the Ethics committee on March
21 2005 complaining that she had been prevented from accessing the
actual data to independently analyse it? Why did she say that on
Chiron had seen the data and analysed it? Why did she say that results
that she was responsible for had been submitted to the medicines
approval committee without her even knowing?

You imply my reference to professor lennon deriding the claimed
partnership was false... but in her letter that is exactly what she is
on about... you obviously haven't done your homework... apologists
rarely do.

Are you going to answer this?

I have no idea, have you asked her?

>2. Why was she dropped of authorship of subsequent papers?

She doesn't appear to have been, some were published some time later.
However, if you think she was, you are there and New Zealand is only
the size of a small city in population terms so why not ask her and
let us know?

>3. Why did she write to a medical journal throwing doubt over the so-

Can you provide a reference to that article?

Of course not, I've mainly read your articles. However, I've found
them to misrepresent facts on a very basic level. Quite simply I
can't trust anything you say, nor could any other reader. Again,
why, if your case is so strong, do you feel it necessary to be
dishonest in your presentation of information?

No, I quoted from a document you referenced dated 25 Mar 2005 provided
as a pdf file you used as a reference in the third iteration of your
articles. You said it was one you got under a freedom of information
request.

>but failed to see the one immediately in front of it?

Probably because it wasn't there. The only letter immediately before
the one my quote came from was also by Prof Lennon and was hand
annotated 04/08/210.

>Now that is a sure sign of an apologist blinded by their act of defending the faith.

They were documents you supplied. If they were not complete that
doesn't altogether surprise me but If they were manipulated I suggest
you look in a mirror to find the culprit. As for defending the faith
may I remind you that it is you who has the degree in theology.

>I emailed Dr Mark Bolland...

I'm not familiar with NZ medical hierarchy, the only Dr M Bolland I
can find is an Endocrinologist . Is this the Dr Bolland you are
quoting? It would be helpful if you could explain his involvement in
the vaccination programme.

Is this your answer to my question about who, what, when and where? to
your statement "senior medics have asked, "where is the data...?"

I have no idea, nor do you. Why not ask her?

Probably because they had. What's wrong with that?

I have no idea, nor do you. If you really feel this level of
triviality is important why not stop wasting everyone's time with
silly guessing games and put these questions to her?

I implied nothing of the sort I stated your interpretation of it,
and the description "derided" was nonsensical. It was. Please try
to be accurate.

I have asked you who these senior doctors were and where and when they
asked this question.
