Please review my original post on this topic. You may find that in fact, I did not pose the thoughts articulated in my post as questions nor did I request a response.

Although you have responded in any case, it is noteworthy that you inadvertently missed the entire point of my post. That being we do not know how the treatment worked in PI and Brazil.

And although I'm sure it was unintentional, your verbose response succeeded in informing me of your version of the events as you recall it.
