    Firstly, whether there are beta amyloid deposits in brain or not does not correlate with AD. Perfectly healthy brains can be full of amyloid.

    Secondly, amyloid is increased in response to viral infections, to protect neurons. This is why full vaccinated elderly have signficantly less dementia.

    Thirdly, amyloid deposits are used normally to seal the ends of microvasculature, which is why all anti-amyloid drugs to date have a significant risk of causing death due to brain bleeds, this is called Amyloid-Related Imaging Abnormalities (ARIA).

    The amyloid hypothesis is bad science. It has been for almost 30 years and only supported by confidence bias and fraudulent work.

      Sorry I don’t understand this? If beta amyloid deposits in brain do not correlate with AD, why does vaccination make a difference?

      So you’re saying fatal strokes cure Alzheimer’s?

      (Let the record show this was a joke comment.)
