Interesting disclaimer from a group of authors who had been helping develop the latest ROBINS risk of bias tool but jumped ship rather than put their names to the publication researchonline.lshtm.ac.uk/id/eprint/46... #episky

"Bottom line: The peptide craze is unfounded. The evidence base for use of these drugs, either for off-label indications or as non-approved drugs, is wanting." Thanks @erictopol.bsky.social for cutting through the pseudoscience. #healthpolicy #episky erictopol.substack.com/p/the-peptid...

The Peptide Craze

What should we call it when the number of meta-analyses start exceeding the number of RCTs performed? Meta-analytic incontinence? Meta-analytic diarrhea? (Since these are mostly 💩) Meta-analytic overflow Any other suggestions? @mikejohansenmd.medsky.social #EpiSky #MedSky

The WHO’s new Pandemic Agreement aims to boost global readiness by improving vaccine access, sharing information and strengthening health systems. But guess who’s sitting this one out? https://buff.ly/Bwm4cZn #COVID19 #BirdFlu 🧪🩺 #EpiSky

Scientists of the world, this is happening on our watch and we need to face it down. Evidence-based medicine weaponised for overtly ideological purposes. We do not need randomised trials of 'vaccine' versus 'no vaccine' when those vaccines have *already* been shown to be safe & effective. #episky 🧪

The Georgia Department of Public Health (DPH) has confirmed a measles case in an unvaccinated resident. DPH is working to identify any persons that may have been exposed between Jan.19-24, 2025 when they were infectious.

The individual acquired the virus while traveling within the United States.
