      Conveniently neglect dozens of ad hominem attacks you lobbed from the safety of Twitter Why would you care if he is so wrong? Cos. Ioannidis' IFR est is proving accurate, and yours laughably wrong? Whoever marries the spirit of this age will find himself a widower in the next.

      The only personal comment I have made about professor Ioannidis is that he is by all accounts a lovely person and a dedicated researcher, actually. I try to limit myself to discussing evidence where possible

          Re-writing history much? What is posted on the Internet, stays there. You specifically called his papers messy, that they were beneath his stature. Several times you insinuated that he was willfully introducing bias (a VERY grave accusation).

          You posted these cheap personal attacks under the (initial) annonimity of Twitter taking advantage of the prevailing mood. Probably felt very exciting to be attacking the reputation of a respected professor with the Internet cheering you on. Now, pay the piper

          Well, I'm always happy to be proven wrong. Please do provide some evidence for these "dozens" of ad hominem attacks that I have committed
