@BallouxFrancois @GSbeirut @Roshan_Karia Yes he does not know how to calculate risk. Not at all. He conflates individual and aggregate. I saw numerous errors before yesterday. Totally clueless. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ FALSE DICHOTOMIES: Economy vs virus. Most bus failures come from risk aversion. Nonlinearity: hosp capacity gets overhelmed. We are progressively learning abt the disease: BUY TIME, w/treatments improving, perhaps vaccine. Most effective: masks+superspreaders for now https://t.co/jScwGgMnAB — PolitiTweet.org

2/MYTHS BY CRANKS a- "Masks are not effective" (using "sounds scientific" biology argument) b- Measures carry economic costs: no, it's the VIRUS that's costly [See debate w/Ioannidis]. c- "Death numbers are low" w/o realizing it is BECAUSE of measures. https://t.co/io2eVXxznw — PolitiTweet.org

Now a ref for the genre (don't quite agree w/Raoult rather w/his style) Raoult: "He is a kind of Nassim Taleb of infectious disease. He is brilliant, doesn’t feign false humility, & claims rather persuasively that he's indifferent to many of his critics." https://t.co/U2JbOmwohM — PolitiTweet.org
