I have been added to this list for conducting a study which did not produce the wanted results. People can bitch and moan, but that is how science works. If you do not like it, show me a better study, or even better, conduct one yourself.

@Debunk_the_Funk @TheChiefNerd The myocarditis/pericarditis associations have been described already. The association between the first Moderna dose and ADEM, if causal, corresponds to 1 case in 1.75 million vaccinated. Extremely rare and only possible to detect because of the huge size of the study.

@Debunk_the_Funk @TheChiefNerd Yes, they have been very effective in preventing severe disease. The few serious side effects observed in this and other studies have been rare. The new signals appear to be related to the first shots and should not deter any of the target groups for seasonal Covid-19 vax.

I wanted to write a thread on this too, but others have already said this. If your study shows post-COVID risk of hospitalisation from other infections is *lower* than those who aren't infected (no plausible explanation for this)- odds are that your groups aren't comparable.

New 🇩🇰study: Substantial sick-leave in the c19 post-acute period! 🟠37,482 infected, 44 yrs old, 61% F with control grp. 🟠 4.5 per 100 w substantial sick-leave (3.3 more than expected) 🟠0.8 per 100 w longterm sick-leave (0.5 more than expected).🧵

The majority of participants would have been vaccinated during the study period, but among those who were unvaccinated when infected, we did observe a tendency for higher post-acute risk than for booster vax breakthrough. 🧵

But currently, on a week to week basis, incidental c19-mortality is low in relation to mortality due to c19. @TracyBethHoeg please🙏 do not make claims about Nordic c-19 surveillance that you cannot document or have misinterpreted. 🧵4/4

Det har vi set på i 🇩🇰 data. Vi observerede intet bekymrende. En forskel på 🇩🇰 og 🇺🇸 er at vi ikke har anvendt de samme influenza vacciner. Amerikanerne har eks. brugt en del højdosis.

Jeg er interesseret i, om @SSTSundhed har overvejet, at 1) det kan være forbundet med øget risiko for stroke at få COVID-19 og influenza vaccine samtidigt og 2) der ikke er data, der viser klinisk gavn af COVID-19 vaccine, når man først har haft COVID-19.

Denmark had extensive testing in the study period, but some misclassification of uninfected follow-up is likely from people without PCR verified infection. We believe this bias is minor, since it will primarily be present in the period post 1. omicron wave.🧵

If we had only discovered the effectiveness of ivermectin early in the pandemic we would have had no need for vaccines.😂Dont worry, I did not watch the entire 3hr30m. I only spot checked.

Newly published studies show that mRNA covid-19 boosters, including those updated against newer variants, are effective and safe in protecting older adults from severe covid-19. But what does that mean for healthcare providers and patients?

@DGBassani It is indiviual-level survival times (time to event) that are aggregated according to covariates. This yields counts and person-years that are analysed w. Poisson reg. Table 1 that you refered to does not have pyrs.

The small and early batches has the largest rates of reports because they were given to the frail and the reporting obligations were more comprehensive at the start of the roll-out🙄

Early batches given to the most frail and health and care workers may have had fewest reports. Illness in the most frail would be likely to be attributed to their frailty. Health and care workers are well and unlikely to have a coincidence.

As human beings we are inherently bad at properly weighing risks. We tend to magnify the risks of a preventative vaccine, but ignore e.g. the risks associated with riding a bicycle without a helmet. This will be magnified if people are constantly bombarded by spurious claims.🔚

Some people are calling for vax RCTs powered to detect diffs in all-cause mort. OK. Lets calculate. In the Dec 2020 NEJM pub on BNT162b2 there were 2 and 4 all-cause deaths in vax arm and placebo arm. Each arm ~21,000 (i.e. risks of 0.01% and 0.02%). 🧵
