Randomized trial protocols:
➖Choose the wrong drug dosage, too high (HCQ – Recovery, Solidarity) or too low (IVM – Together) depending on the safety and efficacy of the drug,
2/n
➖Choose the wrong treatment duration (IVM – Together, etc…),
3/n
➖Choose the wrong timing for intervention: start treatment late when your trial aims to study an antiviral (HCQ – Recovery, Solidarity, Discovery),
4/n
➖Modify the inclusion criteria concerning the time between symptoms and recruitment (Principle: 7 days, changed to 14 days),
5/n
➖Do not exclude young patients in good health, it will be difficult to see a difference between the groups (IVM – Lopez-Medina et al.),
6/n
➖Do not exclude patients who took the drug tested in the trial before recruitment, (IVM – Together, Lopez-Medina et al.),
Today’s world has more anti-science than ever before. Anti-science is the deliberate falsification of testing, evidence, or conclusion that results in predictable harm. It is an extremely bad type of pseudoscience. ABN
