@hahussain Remember how NYT caught Trump sleeping? https://t.co/12o0KKfHj0 I asked ChatGPT - "has NYT ever reported on Biden sleeping?" The answer is No.
For those of you in the US - is there a Menorah next to the Christmas tree in public spaces you have visited, like in prior years (shopping malls, hospitals etc?) Please reply “yes” or “no” or “some yes, some no”

I call it the “People Will Have to Die” Fallacy. Who is that person who will only be convinced by "death and destruction?" The mom who is worried about vaccine safety? Or a person of color who is asking whether the vaccine was studied in people like her? Or someone who does not have easy access to a vaccine?
@BrianLehrer : “It could be, sadly, that it’s going to be a lot of death and disease that ends this period.”
@apoorva_nyc: "I think it's gonna take some real death and destruction first for people to realize the importance [of vaccines]."
@DhruvKhullar: "I asked a historian - how do we come together? They said, 'Last time it happened was World War II, so we have to win World War III."

Guys - (a) please take it down a notch; (2) clinical trials have a "safety follow-up period." In oncology it's usually 30 days. In vaccine studies, about 5-7 days. After that, usually only "related SAEs" need to be reported (life-threatening and likely related to drug), but providers don't always do. It's hard to tell what's related to what after a while.

@AaronSiriSG Good reminder that one can read lots of scientific papers, and speak of p values all day, but without formal scientific training one can never be a scientist. Just like I can say “Beyond Reasonable Doubt!” “Habeas Corpus!” all day and still not become a lawyer.
