        One rule of thumb I've adopted: if your paper relies on statistics, and one of your authors is not a very qualified statistician, you probably can ignore that paper.

        You say that both papers authors have been rooting for Ivermectin since mid 2020. In the Bryant Lawrie paper that’s simply wrong as they only heard about Ivermectin following Korys Senate presentation in December 2020
