This is utter BS. @US_FDA had decided not to issue an emergency use authorization for #ConvalescentPlasma. Then @realDonaldTrump intervened, and @SteveFDA caved. Hahn has betrayed the American people and failed as @FDACommissioner. He should resign now. https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/does-convalescent-plasma-work-against-covid-19-who-knows/ …https://twitter.com/SteveFDA/status/1298071603675373569 …

I mean, seriously. The use of relative risk reduction figures instead of absolute risk reduction figures is a common tactic to make an intervention appear more effective.

Not only that, but this was a retrospective study. There was no control group, and it wasn’t randomized. WTF,

That might explain a bit. A fair number of oncologists use relative risk reduction figures without also quoting the absolute figures. It's a pet peeve of mine.
