      When @VPrasadMDMPH - a verified, card carrying medical conservative - tells you it's probably not right to wait for full publication of a study before offering a treatment to your patients... Probably worth thinking about doing ithttps://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1273319792951214080 …

      To the doctors advocating not treating patients with Recovery protocol/ Dex until the manuscript comes. That is totally wrong will lead to preventable death is a gross misunderstanding of probability and... i hate to say this.. is probably unethical Why? [thread]

      Pretty sure he's right here Taking your example, this is like Vinay giving you an example of when you should argue with a homeopathist on twitter 😉

      He never targeted me personally & I do think he is right here. Dex should be immediate standard of care. However, tweets decrying doctors' use of unproven treatments are dunking on a 4-foot hoop. Though I am in 100% in favor of this dunking. https://twitter.com/VPrasadMDMPH/status/1273319798227603457 …

      I don't. Not without at least a preprint for us to examine. You can't tell me that they don't have a manuscript if they've done the analysis. I bet they do.

          Thankfully my days running a covid team are in the past, hopefully never to be repeated. But I'd have to have a compelling reason not to give dex now. If the final paper terms out to be a sham, I'm never trusting medicine again and will retire.

          I’m not in the position to (yet, stay tuned, NC numbers don’t look great..) but I agree. Risk:benefit seems in favor, they def could put out a preprint, and should. Also yes I quit if this turns out like the HCQ papers lol
