I am with the critic of the study: in this case, it's not sufficient to
assume random interactions because the outcome is death, which is a much
higher price than most illnesses.  (I'm not sure if this simulation
compares with the same simulation of the seasonal flu.  This would be the
right thing to do and would show what the true risk is.)
