"Effective" by their measurements is a reduction in symptoms.
They claim the symptoms are reduced to some degree.

They don't have a symptom efficacy yardstick, or symptom efficacy calibration device.

It's completely nebulous.

Someone could die, and they would still claim the patient has "reduced symptoms", and it was effective.

They haven't studied transmission of illness. To date.

Wasn't part of the study.

No reduced flu/cold transmission.
