Oh look, another media report of a (not very good) paper where the author made the error of not telling us ’than WHAT?’ "25% more likely to get cancer” Than WHAT? Eg change from 0.5% risk (i.e. 5 people/1000) if you don’t eat organic to 0.63% (6/1000) if you do. That’s WHAT.https://twitter.com/GilesYeo/status/1054842408469295105 …
Replying to @dnunan79
This is particularly frustrating because this paper REPORTED ABSOLUTE RISK DIFFERENCE 0.6% absolute risk increase in people who don't eat any organics compared to people who eat lots, from 0.16% (269/16962) cancer (lots of organics) to 0.22% (360/16471) cancer (none)
