Maybe you could back up your claim about Ioannidis using "impossible" studies. I searched all 85 references in his meta-analysis and found no mention of "Croatia" or "Scotland", so I cannot evaluate your claim. Maybe you can show me what studies you refer to.

I see now that you got your claims from the "Atomsk" toxic person. Warning: an amateur, anonymous person with an ideological grudge is not your best go to for scientific info. His claims are simply false and all over the place. Laughably wrong.

You trust a Twitter account that's anonymous and regularly insults people, while demonstrating little knowledge in the field and massive personal bias, over the expertise of one of the world's top meta-analysts. Forgive me if I laugh at your lack of judgment. LOL.

I partly agree—I do not like relying on anonymous accounts, and if .
@AtomsksSanakan would DM me some verifiable particulars of his expertise, to be kept in confidence, I would be grateful. However, coming from someone who insists we must look AT SCIENCE only, this is risible.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

I prefer to remain anonymous. But I've given people all the information needed to fact-check what I said. For example,
@therealrthorat's claim is nonsense, since Ioannidis didn't update to include higher IFRs. He revised *down* https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1381473706489356291 … https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/eci.13423 …pic.twitter.com/FAxyzSfJZQ

I just saw today an estimate of over 20% excess deaths in Mumbai in 2020. I will admit, all Indian data has large error bars.

Re: "I just saw today an estimate of over 20% excess deaths in Mumbai in 2020. I will admit, all Indian data has large error bars" Excess deaths would imply the ~11,000 reported COVID-19 deaths are an under-estimate. That makes things worse for his IFR. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.04.08.21255101v1 …pic.twitter.com/6a6mLfeI6t

Precisely. But a combination of inertia, incompetence, and corruption make me wonder if when if ever we would get accurate figures from India. (Likewise Russia.)

We have enough mortality data to know Russia is likely faking their numbers. Same for Belarus. India I'm less sure about.

Not ~precisely~ true. Russia and India are almost certainly massively undercounting COVID-19 deaths, probably by a factor of 2-3. Belarus' numbers are literally made up, even on casual examination

Belarus doesn't even really try tho, it's amazing. They report the same death number +/-1 for a few weeks, then change the numberpic.twitter.com/ieIYmjX1eN
