John Campbell recently got very excited about a paper claiming to show that cancer deaths increased in Japan following vaccination. A closer look at the data shows that the paper is bollocks.

🚨 New peer-reviewed study from Australia shows vaccinated vs unvaccinated Covid death rates for 50+ & 70+ during Delta & Omicron!

'The unvaccinated had a 7.7 times higher average weekly death rate than those who were fully vaccinated among people aged 50+.

Once again we have two grown men struggling to rub two brain cells together being heard by millions of people while science communicators try to clean up their mess.

So sick of these anti-science attacks on Twitter that try to drive hate based on false allegations of non-existent crimes. Just had to report yet another post to the helpdesk. Let's see if they bother to act on this one. Not sure who this is, blocked him months ago...

Nicole Shanahan I hope this post can encourage professional dialogue between you and me as I'm a professional cardiologist similar to what Mccullough once was. Your political running mate strongly encourages questioning everything, so I give you evidence that will hopefully inspire questioning

Dr John Campbell recently published a video entitled Trickle of truth. A better title would be Tsunami of Lies.

It’s easy to make stuff up about science if you never give your audience the proper tools to interpret results. No, the study in question did not show that modifications to mRNA made in vaccines stimulates cancer growth. They just showed that it doesn’t prevent cancer growth if

This is an important article by in that it illustrates *with receipts* how deeply misleading the quote mining of his slack messages has been by lab leak advocates. But in terms of the science it reveals nothing more than what was stated in the papers.

In a turn of events surprising to no one actually grounded in this reality... investigation of sudden cardiac deaths of 16-30-year-olds in Oregon finds no link to COVID-19 mRNA vaccination:

No death in this age group over the study period could be linked

Here is a link to a 50 minute seminar I just gave today discussing some of the epidemiological fallacies that have confused many during the pandemic, and led to a great deal of misinterpretation/misrepresentations of observational data.

I discuss base rate fallacy, age and time
