Originally posted by fullyautomatix View PostOf course the establishment would like to brain wash the public that this was all unrelated. Nerve agent dosage slightly higher and causing paralysis, is of course dressed as normal, nothing to worry about.
So better start saying nice things about Pfizer like I do or you might become part of the normal paralisis group...Comment

Let's look at the expected number of bells palsy for the 2 month period following their jab. So 4 per 38,000 per 2 months translates to an incidence rate of 63/100,000 per year. Normal incidence rate in general population is 20/100,000 per year. That's over 3 times the rate and more importantly there was 0/100,000 per year incidence rate in the control group.
It's a statistically significant result. It's crazy considering that we would consider a drug a wonder drug if it decreased incidence rate of a disease by 300%.
Of course it's all meaningless if it isn't replicated but this shouldn't just be brushed aside as it is statistically significant.Comment

It's not winter yet though. I would presume these happened in early fall right?
I am not from health/medical background but have a strong background in data/programming/statistics. Before this tulipshow this last year I had no idea how incompetent people from these industries were with data. So many mistakes with data over the last year. A level much exceeding the private industries I have worked in. I would have thought it was the other way around with a higher degree of care in the sciences but point is I don't trust it. Now of course this doesn't seem like it's a show stopper anyway but I don't like it being brushed aside so quickly by the media with no scrutiny.Comment
