Friends, this is an example of the tricks used by fraudsters and psychopaths to mislead with risk factors. Instead of looking at risk reduction, they focus on Yes/No with "can". In other words a 99.999% risk reduction maps to "Yes". — PolitiTweet.org

Friends; the Incerto discusses the notion of blindness to COUNTERFACTUALS, effects not seen thanks to a risk reduction measure. As an exercise in empirical rigor missing from the discussion, let's look at: 1) How many lives were saved by vaccines, 2) Morbidities reduced. — PolitiTweet.org

2) I am blocking every sophist who responds "but this is a majority rule" or some non sequitur. My point is not about the optimality of the referendum system; it's that the vote contradicts claims by conspiracy psychopaths that: "vaccines cards = government grab". — PolitiTweet.org
