Covid-19 Science

Human Sacrifices

 

This is biological warfare on all of us. Trump’s deliberate slow response and failure to act is spreading the virus exponentially. This means Trillions in costs and massive wealth transfer–beyond the Trillions they already stole from the Treasury. Everyone will be indebted for the rest of their lives to pay off these treatments.

Trump should be hauled out in handcuffs for calling it a “hoax,” for dismantling the pandemic warning department in the government, and for refusing to distribute vital supplies to medical workers. He is a clear and present danger to America.

The Trouble With Scientists

 In 2005, medical science was shaken by a paper with the provocative title “Why most published research findings are false.”¹ Written by John Ioannidis, a professor of medicine at Stanford University, it didn’t actually show that any particular result was wrong. Instead, it showed that the statistics of reported positive findings was not consistent with how often one should expect to find them. As Ioannidis concluded more recently, “many published research findings are false or exaggerated, and an estimated 85 percent of research resources are wasted.”²

It’s likely that some researchers are consciously cherry-picking data to get their work published. And some of the problems surely lie with journal publication policies. But the problems of false findings often begin with researchers unwittingly fooling themselves: they fall prey to cognitive biases, common modes of thinking that lure us toward wrong but convenient or attractive conclusions.
