That would be fine if this was a thread about AZ but it isn’t about AZ. This thread came about after you added your support to an unjustified attack on a scientist’s credibility.

I said regular people cannot easily tell credentialed cranks from the noise, in general, and not about a single person (that I don't follow for a reason) but let me amend: seems sometimes even people with the right degrees can't tell credentialed cranks apart. Have a nice day.

No, that's not it. We don't have bigger trials because SA *suspended* the use of AZ after this, as continuing to use it given beta was prevalent would've been unethical. It's never been proven that AZ has efficacy against severe infection with beta, just hypothesised.
-
The NEJM paper itself concluded that AZ was not effective against beta - given it was designed to pick up a minimum efficacy threshold which wasn't reached.

Beta was not outcompeted by Delta. It was suppressed by protective measures and host depletion due to vaccination and prior infection. Delta's contribution to host depletion by infection is only a fraction of the total.
