It's interesting watching the pushback from many scientists saying that these papers represent a tiny fraction of the research done and therefore everything is ok https://twitter.com/liammannix/status/1153431014678515712 …

Now, these certainly aren't going to get anything retracted (they are errors in percentage calculation) but even so, it's not a great look

And this was a quick scan of a single paper published by authors who'd previously had 2 retractions. There are over 200 retractions in that database and perhaps triple that number of authors How many more mistakes are there?

And, given how rare retractions are, how many pieces of research are sitting out there in the ether, riddled with errors that aren't quite bad enough to be retracted, or are huge but haven't been picked up on? I'd bet quite a few
