I'm not. I have some sympathy for people skeptical of the covid vaccines, like they were fast tracked through the EUA and they are newer, but even those I currently strongly support.

I'm not going to die on this hill if some new data comes up about them saying they have more risks, but as it stands I've seen nothing really that points that way.

Pretty sure you spent the last month ranting on about VAERS data and spike protein toxicity. Reposting that youtube video repeatedly, even after having been told how incorrect it is.

Hold up

I'll wait for DR to confirm but I'm guessing the implication is that someone or something paid to get the article out there (because there's an OA fee or something, which can be fairly expensive) which also brings into question how rigorously it was reviewed?

Even non OA journals charge publication fees. OA journals just shunt the cost of subscription from the consumer to the producer, so their fees are higher.

OA doesn't have implications for the quality of the journal.

That kind of felt like clickbait. The widespread efficacies of multi-modal learning and retention strategies don't really debunk the notion that learning styles exist. Some students have significant discrepancies between their various processing abilities, and that absolutely affects them in school. While certain methods of teaching are likely to work better across the board for specific subjects (e.g. using maps in geography), I expect students would still experience different outcomes with those methods, depending on their learning styles.

People have literally studied this and found no consistent individual differences.

I mean yeah, I get the idea of "anything that moves" is probably a turn-off. My dating experiences can be counted on one hand.

I mean, you can just be honest and say you don't have too much experience and are still exploring what you want.

But I still think with your handful of experiences you should reflect. Are there things in the past that you really made you think "this could be someone I stick with long term?" Are common interests important to you? If so, which interests are most important to have in common? Do you want a partner who is going to be more independent and career focused? Or someone who wants to put focus on family? Etc.

Given that the evidence for dexamethasone is much stronger, and the drug itself is much cheaper, I can't think of a rational reason to prescribe Ivermectin instead.

Like I said, I'm not saying there's good evidence to suggest clinical use here. Just that the fact that only two studies show a strong positive effect doesn't necessarily say anything important for the detection of any effect at all. All and all seems consistent with a weak positive effect that would require far more samples to really detect.

Never really been a fan of meta-analysis generally anyway. Seems too unreasonable to collapse data across a myriad of known and unknown differences. Sometimes they can be useful for documenting potential moderators that account for differences across the literature.
