I dont know why you think I have a pre-conceived notion that there was something nefarious going on. I have made it pretty clear that I think there is not enough evidence to judge it at face value.
Do you think there is zero chance there were more test results like this? More importantly. Does it not warrant a skeptical mind? You seem to want to dismiss this flatly based on your experiences. Which means its actually you who has the confirmation bias. You decided it was nothing and thats that. Not even willing to wait for more evidence or verification. You had your mind made up immediately. So, you belive one thing. I belive another.
The reason I accused you of having a confirmation bias is you because the alternative is you being an idiot and I chose to be charitable. I still think you're merely acting on bias by the way.
Do you think there is zero chance there were more test results like this?
Of course not. But I do think there is a 99% chance the reason for it isn't relevant, and a 99.9% chance that while the reason may be relevant, it won'r be relevant enough to have gambled the time chasing down that one inexplicable result you got that week.

Confirmation bias is rejecting more likely alternatives because your preferred explanation fits. I am not rejecting more likely alternatives. I am specifically adopting the likely.
You however are so attached to the legit malfeasence of pfizer that you'll see it even when it doesn't exist. In this case because malfeasence remains a POSSIBLE explanation in this video, no matter how well I describe to you that this as normal, reasonable, and necessary behavior in biological research, you're unwilling to reject your preferrence regardless of how unlikely it is.
This is not evidence of possible malfeasence that should be looked deeper into. This is normal, reasonable, and necessary behavior in science.

To each his own and the world keeps turning.
Have a fantastic weekend!
