Great article!! As Modern Discontent said, many of these media articles are repackagings of our substack articles, pretending to be original thoughts and using the same references.
Also "Eric Feigl Ding" seems to be bringing strangely coincidental graphs and thoughts
Interesting. The plot continues to thicken I suppose! Honestly Brian I wouldn't be surprised if those in the media are scoping out Substacks for information. I did find it quite ironic that I sat through the entire Molnupiravir press briefing and reported on some of the concerning remarks, only for the NYT to mention more than a week later "hey, this might be dangerous for pregnant women!", or maybe I'm just being conspiratorial- I always make sure to keep some Reynold's wrap around (I kid, I'm sure they didn't get it from me, but then again I don't discount that the media is turning to Substacks to find what to write).
I think this really just indicates why such a rushed approach to approval has seriously "glossed" over so many things that should have otherwise not been "glossed" over.
That Michael Charness preprint discloses that he has ownership of some Pfizer shares. It also discloses Gupta as someone who has owned Pfizer stock in the past.
I also thought it was interesting that Charness seems to suggest that instead of 5 days of Paxlovid, patients should maybe get it for 10 days? Am I reading that right? IDK.

Looks like the wife got infected by the husband from his rebound.

That's not great but better than total silence. Thank you for staying on the case.
