That means your claim that it “only works in vitro” is false, though. The right claim would be “we don’t know yet”.

Also you do a lot of work to make it sound like a foregone conclusion it doesn’t work (appeals to authority in “anyone paying attention”).

The problem is there is now a lot of anecdotal evidence of it working from good sources (teams of doctors on frontlines from around the world). So really you can’t appeal to anyone paying attention.
