VT(Vaccine Talk member): Apologies I will try to find the source I meant which discusses why NNTV is something of a moving target because it depends on the prevalence of the disease. In any case, Seneff is not an epidemiologist, virologist, vaccine researcher, or infectious disease expert. She's an antivaxx computer scientist with a very long track record of misrepresenting data. The odds that she of all people is suddenly right about this when thousands of other experts are wrong are extraordinarily slim. https://respectfulinsolence.com/.../seneff-blaming.../
ME: sounds to me like she is just posing a question "I cannot claim to have proven that glyphosate is causing the weakened immune system and lung damage that sets up a susceptibility to an acute response to COVID-19. Science is a process of inquiry and we must keep inquiring. However, the circumstantial evidence is compelling and more research is needed."

VT: "Just asking questions" is a well-known tactic to spread misinformation in the guise of innocent enquiry. https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Just_asking_questions

Seriously, I don't even know how to respond to that, lol. So no more asking questions, people!
