Hmmm, wonder how he can explain why the 6 members of my family who averaged a
cold or flu every month or two, have now gone 3 years without getting sick
(except for one time for my wife).

Previous 3 years - about 100 illnesses between us all.
Last 3 years - 1 lung congestion problem.

So the basline is about 100 with a standard deviation of 10.  1 is just under 10
standard deviations from the norm of 100.  My stats books don't even go that far
out, they stop at 3 standard deviations, and basically say anything beyond that
is not a statistical deviation.  I would guess about a trillion or more to one.

If we look at it on an individual by individual basis, we have:

previous 3 years - about 16 illnesses each
last 3 years - 0 illnesses each.

Standard deviation is 4.  The second 3 years is 4 standard deviations from the
mean.  Assuming that this means that the probability of it being statistical
(since I cannot find anything that goes beyond 3 standard deviations) is about 1
in 100,000 the probability that all 6 are statistical is 100,000 to the 6th
power, or 10^30.  This is 1 chance in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
or one chance in a trillion trillion.

This is better proof to me than any official drug test results I have ever read
that was FDA approved.
