And this refutes my point...how exactly?

  Not every comment in a discussion needs to be nor is intended as a direct refutation. Sometimes people add additional relevant comments for consideration. In this case, a treatment that is going to be given to 10-100K times as many people, most of whom are not suffering from an acute, life-threatening condition at the time of treatment, has a much different threshold for weighing the risks of possible harm. A cancer treatment which cured 999 of 1000 patients and killed the 1000th outright would be a major breakthrough. A flu vaccine that did the same would rightly be rejected.
