No, the number of REPORTED cases. An uncontrolled database of people who suicided at some point after Chantix.

We know much more from their stories than that. You deliberately throw away information, which is not scientific.

Stories are a great starting point. Then you have to go and test whether they are true. We all have stories.

If you think patients have lied you can find out by checking the stories. An RCT won't do it.

I don't think anyone has lied. I think that there are 1000s of factors that you haven't controlled for.

If I say, e.g., using an ecig made me stop smoking, I have identified causality with 100% certainty. Same with Chantix.

So you were locked in a room with literally no other inputs for the entire time you quit smoking?

You didn't work, you didn't have/lack money, you didn't take other medications, sleep, eat, etc etc etc.

And you can say that everyone did this? That there is NO POSSIBILITY that other factors influenced anyone else?

Because if you can demonstrate that, I'm all ears. Please, show me the evidence. It'd be groundbreaking stuff.
