Small study in France (not in the US), less than 50 people. In addition, they “lost” six participants, mostly excluded from statistics. Encouraging results, but saying that it is 100% effective is ridiculous, not enough statistical data.
Clarification: “lost” means they quit taking the drug. NOT that they died.
It doesn’t have to be 100% successful. All it has to do is make enough drop in mortality rate that people can go back to work.
NOTHING else matters. People are going to die, just not as many.
We all need to get over ourselves, accept the fact that there is yet another (unlikely) way to die floating around there, and suck it up.
You want to see mass fatalities, just wait until the economy passes crush depth.
In engineering school I was taught that any sample of 13 or more was considered to be "statistically significant".
