I keep seeing you Debbie. I totally understand what you’re saying, but is it not at least hopeful? Are you an MD? What’s your background? Isn’t there some positives?

10-4. So let’s say we be more constructive in our decrying these studies. I appreciate your knowledge and background. I live adjacent to a R1 university and many of my neighbors are scientists and have backgrounds similar to yours. A lot of these people I would consider either on the spectrum or, at the very least, socially inept. There’s a way of getting your point across that doesn’t discourage the normal Joe from understanding your overarching point. Especially when you consider what’s happening in many people’s lives at the moment. They are looking for some spark of hope. Is this the magic bullet? After reading your arguments, I tend to think not. However, the average user on this site doesn’t have your background, and I think you might be a bit more diplomatic when you interject. Besides, it does sound somewhat promising, despite the small sample size and the other factors you noted. I think that at times of crisis we may have to adjust the normal peer-reviewed time-frame and start being creative and speedy. Thanks again for your knowledge on these matters. I appreciate the facts.

I appreciate your point pede. Good to disagree and not have mods or admins silencing thought
