"Journalists" rarely ever apologize for any of their bullshit they get wrong.Blazer Bob wrote:

A new study shows that the controversial drug hydroxychloroquine touted by former President Donald Trump increased the survival rate of severely ill coronavirus patients.
The observational study, published by medRxiv, found that antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine, along with zinc, could increase the coronavirus survival rate by as much as nearly 200% if distributed at higher doses to ventilated patients with a severe version of the illness.
“We found that when the cumulative doses of two drugs, HCQ and AZM, were above a certain level, patients had a survival rate 2.9 times the other patients,” the study’s conclusion states.
The study adds, “By using causal analysis and considering of weight-adjusted cumulative dose, we prove the combined therapy, >3 g HCQ and > 1g AZM greatly increases survival in Covid patients on IMV and that HCQ cumulative dose > 80 mg/kg works substantially better. These data do not yet apply to hospitalized patients not on IMV. Since those with higher doses of HCQ had higher doses of AZM, we cannot solely attribute the causal effect to HCQ/AZM combination therapy. However, it is likely AZM does contribute significantly to this increase in survival rate. Since higher dose HCQ/AZM therapy improves survival by nearly 200% in this population, the safety data are moot.”
The study was conducted by Saint Barnabas Medical Center in New Jersey on 255 patients.

I fully agree SC, but that standard has to be used for all sides. This country was put through three years of the Russia investigation where the theory being pushed by Democrats and the media was that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the election. Adam Schiff said many times that he had absolute evidence but he never presented it and the media never demanded that he deliver it.ScienceChic wrote: the search for the truth needs to stop being politicized. It doesn't help when known liars and conspiracy theorists make wild claims or accusations without evidence, but it also doesn't help when clear data are ignored due to biases.

Excellent, we agree. Why did so many people trust one of our greatest threats (China) to be truthful? Is it because the W.H.O. trusts what China says and we are supposed to trust the W.H.O.? Fauci said it would be in China's best interest to find the source... that ignorant statement alone is enough to prove that we can never trust Fauci again.homeagain wrote: "most people had alot of trust in doctors and scientist" before the pandemic. My belief is, the TRUST had
been going down hill rapidly for a very long time. The pandemic only exacerbated the scenario.
In today's society,with social media and retweets,WHO really trusts what is being put out there?? As whole,I think the percentage of the populace is becoming jaded. I am, but then, I ALWAYS attempt to question.
It is verify and then TRUST.
