Not even NEJM: Recent letter to the editor in NEJM about that paper that showed 90% drop in Covid-related mortality after the first booster: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2306683 https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2306683 It turns out that there was also a similar non-disclosed drop in non-Covid-related mortality. Either we discovered a magic elixir, or the entire effect is probably just confounding. The original authors even say in their response that > However, boosters were generally not administered to hospitalized patients who were at high risk for death from any cause. They never even attempted to control for it. Edit: at least NEJM accepts letters to the editor about the crap it publishes.
