On it now, I want out of this and I don't want my kids taking a largely untested vaccine. Promise you will follow the evidence.https://healthpolicy-watch.news/indian-bar-association-rebukes-who-chief-scientist-over-whos-ivermectin-guidelines-for-covid-treatment/ …

I am only really interested in facts, of that I can assure you
The challenge is that often the facts are not as optimistic as we would like1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

You are looking a little biased in this work. Its hard they were/are shutting folk down. Watch Joe Rogan and get better data. There are real world examples. Look at India.

Why do you say that? What makes you think I'm biased? Most of these are real-world examples!

"the evidence is mostly of such low quality that concluding anything at all is difficult." Thats almost disinformation when all we have on the vaccine is estimated data.https://www.thedesertreview.com/opinion/letters_to_editor/ivermectin-wins-in-court-again-for-human-rights/article_98d26958-a13a-11eb-a698-37c06f632875.html …

That's not true, but we're talking ivermectin not vaccines here. And that sentence is my reading of the review evidence in the studies, the evidence in general is of very low quality

"What this means is that there are probably some studies that have not been published" Thats conjecture and it is untrue. The fact that all studies show success should be positive. Now with the vaccine- not really vaccines by the way- there are plenty unpublished studies.

I did. These studies are often not as rigorous as a funded study. Theres no money to be made so unlikely to get that sort of study. Look at the Indian infection graph. Now most of the information is censored but that was not vaccine. It is a decent article people are dying tho.

That's not entirely untrue, but here's a useful point - there were 3 very well-done studies that were not funded by pharma. They were all pretty much squarely null
