Basically you need to follow the money. I do not get any money from Pfizer or other statin manufacturers. I do research to prevent brain injury during cardiac and orthopedic surgery. Two out of three of my cardiac patients smoke. Only one out of 5 of the US populations smoke.

I don’t believe these data are very difficult to understand. They are not really statistics, just demographics. 66% is bigger than 20% - that would be arithmetic. Unless you are biased, then there is no difference.

Statistics can be made to lie.

Ban water!.
Simplified? Yes.

Do you see my point?

“that would be arithmetic.”

Ah, so you not only are a paid liar, you also are an elitist. Gotcha.
