10 articles of anecdotes are just as worthless as 1.
- azinman2 6y agoThe Rome study linked was 143 people, not 10. It seems like you’re moving the goal posts. You said you can’t produce one, I originally did and followed up with many more. Then you say that’s worthless, which means you didn’t even read those links. You’re not discussing things in good faith, which is a violation of the norms here in HN. We saw the same pattern with far bigger studies with SARS. The fact of the matter is this is all very new, and conclusive data will take time. But there’s plenty of evidence already to suggest that for some it behaves like SARS and that’s very concerning. We also don’t know if this will behave like herpes or chickenpox and cause problems later in life even for those who “recovered.” There’s a reason why the world world is taking this seriously.
- anoncake 6y agoRight, I didn't read all those links. I checked one at random, saw it's anecdotal bullshit and decided not to sift through the rest in the hope there could be something valuable in there. But hey, spamming links is a step up from "Google yourself, there's plenty of evidence [I don't bother to cite].
