#275 years, actually.
I don't mind trusting what someone says, but I need to be able to verify it.

#4> Indeed, Doshi has history of playing footsie with the antivaccine movement, amplifying antivaccine conspiracy theories, downplaying the severity of influenza and thus feeding antivaccine narratives, using sleight-of-hand to downplay the effectiveness of flu vaccines, and generally playing the role of a false skeptic with respect to vaccines. At this point, I can’t help but note that Doshi also once signed a petition “questioning” whether HIV causes AIDS.

#8It seems there has to be some amendments to rules about releasing raw, anonymized trial data when the state is sponsoring development of the drug. Also, how can Pfizer claim that their "study" ends in 2023? Several hundred million people have already received their vaccine, unaware that it's part of a study where the clinical data is not even accessible to their doctors...
Long-term studies are common. We still study Tylenol to this day, for example, to monitor for things like "does it interact with newly approved drugs".

#10The BMJ seems to be on good form. First publishing the whistle blower account of pfizer [1], and now this call for raw vaccine trial data. I commend them on this approach, and can only hope that the vaccines are as safe and effective as we have been told.
