So that's the sum total of the story.
I am still not sure I know.
The crime is so ghastly.
Maybe I'm just naive.
Well, one, the evidence is actually really powerful that ivermectin works.
It also reveals something about what's wrong with medical science at the moment.
Because what's really going on here is we don't correctly respond when we are told that randomized controlled trials are the gold standard of scientific tests.
Randomized controlled trials in principle are capable of doing something best in class, and that is revealing very subtle effects.
However, they are very prone to being distorted by biases of the researchers.
And in these cases of the together trial and the principal trial and the others, what you seem to have is a cottage industry of generating results that are favorable to the pharma regime.
And what we in the public should want are tests that are
very difficult to rig.
So randomized control trial, in this case, where you have multiple drugs being tested, where they share a placebo group, where endpoints are adjusted midstream, where the
particular endpoints that are targeted are adjusted to make some drugs look good and other drugs look bad.
All of those are places where fraud can hide.
It is way more important to have good experiments than to have highly sensitive experiments that are very prone to fraud because there's so much incentive for fraud in our current system.
