The guy is not in coma – did you even read the paper?

  He is in a coma in the sense that's relevant here: > the patient, who was unable to move any muscles or even open his eyes

    That is not a coma, the brain has remained functional and isn't shut down like in a coma. The patient has ALS not something that degrades brain functionality itself.

      None of that is relevant in any way. The patient's behavior is the same; it attracts the same scam, because the scam is premised solely on the behavior of not talking. Nobody cares why the person isn't talking. Autistic patients attract this scam too.
