More "clearing amyloid" BS.

Nobody has ever demonstrated any connection between clearing amyloid and reversal or even slowed decline, despite decades trying. The newly approved drug is BS; three FDA board members resigned in protest after that happened.

The only interventions I ever heard of that made a difference were (1) herpes antivirals and (2) TDAP vaccination. Neither can get access to funding, almost all controlled by the amyloid/tau mafia.

News with "could" and "may" are not news

OTOH ultrasound can also destroy the brain. But who cares about some sick old people who cannot defend themselves.

What’s the hypothesis behind that treatment?
For antivirals, the hypothesis is a viral infection that the amyloids and tau are responses to. A study in Taiwan showed promising results.

For TDAP, nobody knows. All we have is a flabbergastingly strong signal from statistical analysis of the US Veterans' Administration entire cohort from 2012-2018. Is it the tetanus, the diphtheria, the pertussis vaccine? An "inactive" ingredient? Something else very, very strongly correlated with administration of booster, such as a more active lifestyle? If it is anything at all, it seems to be the only thing that works, other than maybe herpes treatment.
