"No chimps were ever used to produce the FHHBV product itself" contradicts what they had written in the patent.
https://patents.google.com/patent/US4118478A/enPlasma used as source material for the purification procedures detailed below is obtained by conventional plasmaphoresis procedures from chronic HBs Ag carriers. These may be humans or animal species such as chimpanzees in which the chronic HB carrier state can be induced. The chimpanzee offers the practical advantage that it can be infected with human hepatitis B strains of any desired immunologic sub-type, and can develop chronic carrier state infections which in our experience show particularly high titers of HBs Ag and are frequently associated with high concentrations of both Dane particles and e-antigen. Furthermore, these animals can be conveniently plasmaphoresed at frequent intervals without damage to their health or reduction in HBs Ag or e Ag content of their plasma.
Yet after a lifetime of work with the germ theory, Pasteur himself, on his deathbed said: “I was wrong. The germ is nothing. The Terrain is everything.”
The deathbed is notably where a lot of the most famous scientists get their best ideas. Edison, for example, minutes before his last breath -- "Oh, snap - electrons."
I recall being told that Darwin rejected his theories on evolution on his deathbed as well. It seems that the best time to put words into people's mouths would be right when they are at their end. 🤷♂️

Wow. They should make a pixar movie
i agree, but a lifetime of
'chickenpox party' moms still will hold their ground there,
for some years...you have to convince them...
HIV does not exist
Thanks, I'll issue a correction to my article. Looks like I goofed big time by not knowing that HIV does not exist.
