You know, why wasn't this a question that was being asked, that was being demanded as soon as this allergy started to appear? Why weren't we putting out requests for proposals saying, tell us why this is starting? Instead, It became a verboten subject. You weren't allowed to study it, and science warned each other against studying it. We're going to study it now. We're going to break that omerta. We're going to end the taboo and we're going to find out what's causing it. That's a very exciting moment. (13:28–13:36)
