      No, you are not. And here is why: 1) The observed rate of myocarditis/pericarditis events in <50yo males perfectly matches the expected rate 7 days after 2nd dose. 2) Dose 2 is not riskier than Dose 1. 3) Time_from_vax-to-myocarditis is a flat distribution. You are OK!pic.twitter.com/gJzXnuBbWZ

      Oh no, a comparison to expected cases! Does this help or hurt the heart attack case? But this is evidence against Eric and his powers, as all that tapping has led to zero deaths from myocarditis amount the pediatric set.

      Eric, I'm glad you've finally found your natural habitat. Hanging out and having good time with analysts "detecting fraud" only in positive trials on unprofitable drugs such as Health Nerd, Kyle Sheldrick, this guy... Really your integrity league.

      The point is, your tweet-mates are easy to spot because they ONLY look for fraud/misconduct in (+) trials on cheap, repurposed meds. How do we know that they are scumbags? Because they NEVER look for fraud in (-) trials on repurposed meds and (+) trials on big-pharma meds.

      Matt Timberlake Retweeted Health Nerd

      My “tweet-mates”? 🤷‍♂️ But you’re wrong. Except when they don’t find any evidence of suspect data, they don’t write much about it. That seems self explanatory, doesn’t it? But if there is suspect data there, PLEASE post it. How about this? Guess he is waiting for the real money?https://twitter.com/gidmk/status/1438261363797737472 …

      More than a year after I said that the first remdesivir trials for COVID-19 were shit, another solid study finds virtually no benefit https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(21)00485-0/fulltext …

      Yes, your fucking scumbag tweet-mates. That nerd said that he NEVER found fraud in remdesivir trials. Never. Really? How come he didn't spot this suspicious chain of events? https://twitter.com/masimaux/status/1435593009945587718 …https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1424995504375492616 …

      I pointed out numerous issues in studies of remdesivir. I didn't find any fraud, but some of those pieces of research were useless anyway

      Replying to @masimaux @mjtimber2 and

      That's pretty obvious - switching primary outcome isn't fraud. Several ivermectin studies have done the same. It's not even necessarily bad research practice, although usually it's a bad sign

      Medina-Lopez did so. Unfortunately that study is still cited as evidence that ivermectin does not protect against clinical deterioration.

      See, I don't have a huge issue with that trial. They changed stuff, but were open at every stage about the change, and they've got analyses of the other stuff as well. Hard to take issue with a team that is open about problems

          I get that, my issue is with the way the study has been interpreted and discussed.
