Which RCTs have been resoundingly negative? Tang overdosed patients (we know that thanks to Borba/Lacerda) Skipper and Boulware showed HCQ doing better than the control arm, but were underpowered to reach the arbitrary statistical significance line...

Mitja measured nasopharyngeal swabs, which we now know continue to amass RNA fragments shed by recovering patients for weeks. The Cavalcanti study included already treated patients plus those already in the ICU...who thinks that's reasonable?

Wow! Reported him for spreading covid misinfo then blocked him. Love how he made a table where he took several "studies" added up the total number of patients and deaths, then created his own statistics off that.pic.twitter.com/P27oluZhMj

Aggregating data is unreasonable? That's quite an interesting take. Which information there is misinformation?

I think this person is lying about their experience based on 1 statement: "But the idea that an RCT is better than experimental design is absurd". I mean, this is disqualifying of anyone claiming to be a statistician, or scientist in any discipline that performs experiments.

If you don't understand the point I was making, it's not because *I* am not a statistician. A poorly designed or executed RCT is not worth more than a well designed observational study or ordinary control trial. In particular, Boulware and Skipper de-randomized age.

So I had a bit of back forth with this guy before he blocked me. Turns out our "statistician" does not even know what an RCT is. I thought maybe his initial response was a type-O, but a little pushing and it was clear he has no idea what he's talking about. Not exactly shocking
