The reporting on Summers has been terrible. He was using is power as a mentor to prey on a mentee. Journalists need to stop acting like this was a workplace romance.

@mikejohansenmd.medsky.social The fatal flaw is they pre-specified a clinically relevant absolute risk threshold without considering time horizon or base rate.

The base rate in these trials of <1 year was 0.5%, which is less than the 1% absolute risk reduction they said was clinically significant.

From Peter Drucker's memoir, "Adventures of a Bystander:"

Drucker was a Lecturer at Frankfurt University in February 1933 when this took place, roughly 1 month after Hitler took power.
