KARL, I very much regret the air of sadness that you have suffered as a consequence of my post. That was not the intention. Clearly, you deserve an explanation.
I'll begin by saying that poster concerned was under the impression I was an organic chemist and had nil knowledge of immunology. I was surprised as he has some demonstrable knowledge of medicine but nevertheless clearly had no knowledge of the immunology content of a modern biochemistry degree course. Given that he is aware that I am biochemistry professor from his reading of my previous posts it was a very odd statement and I corrected him. In no sense was it a tussle.
With regard to your views on my military title, no it was not necessary for me to mention it. However I needed to clarify that these days, I am no longer solely confined to banging test tubes around in a lab and I am putting considerable parts of my time leading a team researching the covid virus. My team cannot do the job in commercial or university laboratories due to the dangers involved. Military facilities are the only option. The rank came with the job. I was not conscripted, which last occurred in the 1950's but more importantly, I did not volunteer. I have been an advisor at the facility on and off for years and I was asked to do the job. One does not volunteer to do a job of this nature. The rank came with the job. I had no option but to accept it but the reality is that I couldn't care less if I had the rank of "Private" in front of my name. It merely serves to emphasise my rank amongst military scientists should I encounter difficulties with the regular staff. One would have thought you could have gleaned that from my view on saluting and being addressed as "sir" elsewhere on this thread.
I work at the sharp end our fight against this virus in the UK. I don't make a big deal out of it but on occasions I do feel the need to underline the faith that other people are putting in my ability here on AB and my ultimate superiors.
I accept your views on the military but as you imply, they are not the views of everyone.

Thank you again.
I've just been looking at that post by KARL again. He's clearly not an admirer of the military.
It just made me wonder if he or his nearest and dearest have had the covid jab from one of the many servicemen and servicewomen who have been deployed to administer the jab in centres across the UK? One day he may be grateful to them.

so do I !
my biochem knowledge stopped with Mahler and Cordes - not a nice read.
and yes immunology was part of the general path course
(Roitt)
and yes the military were running Porton Down when I was there
and oops Prof of biochem - sozza your maj .... to enter in the sloppy reading and interpretation of script on AB:
I hadnt realised that immunology was now the sole domain of professors of biochemistry - I am as ever educated by Naomi !

Me I am a street sweeper
we werent in the same salisbury a level zoology class were we? 1970.
and no one calls me sir
The prof - you werent the one who went froo my explanation of photolysis and informed us all - modern quantum mechanics didnt refute it [but it still wasnt pukka]? that was one ABer I thought was an organic chemist.
and also had quite specific knowlege of the aluminium poisioning of Camelford? My apologies if you were someone else. I wd not expect someone with such knowledge to be a clinical immunologist but as Naomi so often points out - you live and learn
