Oh dear - can't believe that the media gave this airtime. What is with Dr Redelmeier's eyes? Maybe he has been driving too much in the full moon?

Oh no, not the bonkers Dr Oliver again! She takes great delight in rubbishing anything even slightly against the Covid vaccination narrative, including accusing Malone, McCullough et al of being misinformation spreaders, whilst carefully omitting to mention she's not medically qualified herself, (she works in Polymer Research). Next time I need advice on Polymers I'll be sure to give her a call (well, maybe)

Makes me sad that Dr Susan Oliver is an Australian academic.

Andrew, have you see this Actuaries Digital article?

Looks like some pretty good number crunching of ABS data.

Adrian Esterman says it good news only 13% excess deaths not the 17% like previosly thought.

WA looks interesting.

Thanks for this very clear and in-depth analysis. At first, I thought the paper must be a troll, whose purpose was showing how bad journal standards have become, but apparently not...
