I smell a rat. We did masks based expert opinion with no RCT. Why? Because there is no harm, and potential good benefit. But with early treatments, we suddenly need to have a level of scrutiny that we give to nothing else. Why? The vaccine. You said it, not me.

Cayley Hamilton @14_acres_People complain that the I-drug wasn’t properly vetted last year. “Weak” observational studies and no RCTs. Okay...So answer me this. Where were the studies/RCTs that conclusively showed, *before* they were implemented that * lockdowns, * social dist., * masks, etc. worked?Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes

This is an obvious red herring, but it's fascinating that people start making these arguments without reading any of my other work first
