Now any increase in depression is cause for concern, but it doesn't sound so shocking when it's reported as a .5% increase.
Reporting on the pill and depression is itself depressing; relative risk is everywhere, but no one has reported the absolute risk increase

Not a single article I can find has mentioned that the increase in hospitalizations was only .02%, again concerning but hardly calamitous

Thanks! I see scary articles everywhere but my GP says it's fine! Lots of mixed messages but I'm gonna trust my doc on this one

I asked reporter
@NYTHealth to include absolute risk (while correcting other reporting errors). He said too hard for short piece. :/ -
well that's depressing. It's not all the journalist's fault, but still a poor effort in my opinion.
