One of the first things taught in statistics is how to make the numbers say whatever you want. The only way we would have a semblance of truth would be if they agreed on a standard protocol to follow when it comes to reporting and sculpting numbers. However, there simply isn't. I have sat in the lab and quite literally listened to scientists go "Well, these are bad results, so they must belong in pile B" while completely ignoring that they came from pile A. They simply convince themselves that it's not possible and something must have been reported wrong because the numbers aren't going in the direction they think they should. In other words, even if the research design is good (which it rarely is), you still have to deal with the extreme bias of the researchers. I don't know what lies they told you, but I can promise they were lies. There's a fine line between training, trauma, and torture. |

I never have taken one, thousands die even after taking the flu shot. You know that each shot has to go through trials before market and there has to be a new one every year with flu shots, the flu strain is never known until it starts, you're having the least and sometimes they worse strains can give you a better chance to fight off the horrible ones, this is where natural immunity comes in. Sorry I got a headache These are the times that tries men's and women's souls! May we come though it victorious! |

Medicine is not a perfect science either and never will be, especially when the data is skewed to meet the hypothesis/agenda. |

In other words, even if the research design is good (which it rarely is), you still have to deal with the extreme bias of the researchers. And that is the problem. People think "studies" that produce "statistics" are the same thing as "Science". If they don't follow rigorous scientific method, it is nothing but a commercial for the outcome the one financing it asked for. Believing in paid studies is more often denying science lately. The universe is basically an animal. It grazes on the ordinary. It creates infinite idiots just to eat them.
