          Science is about poking holes in everything until there are fewer holes to poke...it’s assumed there are more infections than recorded for various reasons. However if you are making an extraordinary claim, you better have ducks in a row, and be prepared to get poked.

          Ioannidis got the reasoning completely BACKWARD. I mean reallllllly backward. In the real world, one must REDUCE RISK in the absence of reliable data, via the MOST ROBUST (model resistant) method. That's the message of the INCERTO. https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/17/a-fiasco-in-the-making-as-the-coronavirus-pandemic-takes-hold-we-are-making-decisions-without-reliable-data/ … pic.twitter.com/jO6uQWRJ7e
