  30. Seven simple questions for #DecisionMakers:

    1️⃣ How big? How much? How many?
    2️⃣ Compared to what?
    3️⃣ Why not a rate?
    4️⃣ Per what? The diabolical denominator.
    5️⃣ How were things defined, counted or measured?
    6️⃣ What was taken into account (what was controlled for)?
    7️⃣ What else should have been taken into account (controlled for)?
