Thanks, Sasha. This has been an incredibly rewarding project for me and I'm glad it seems to be finally working to shake things up.
No, I don't think it can. I have tried to get a copy of the letter but Bristol claims not to have it.
I doubt Cochrane would have taken this step unless they felt strongly about it and believed they could make it stick. The article clearly was a...
I really don't know. CME courses need to be approved in advance and so on. I don't know how one would deal with a situation like this.
Yes, I would think we can assume this is likely to have happened.
I would agree with this point. It's an odd step but perhaps a potentially significant one. I guess we'll have to see if it is followed by other...
Yes, luckily I have not been asked to give my talk in Norwegian!!
This is true, I think. The change is in what people are saying publicly and the obvious inability to advance cogent arguments in support of stupid...

well they published the comment a while ago--they know that the study is a sham. It just depends on what they plan to do. I think they're waiting...
I would definitely not assume there was political intervention. I assume they just solicited the praise from 10 Downing St. and that whatever...
He might have information that it was actually sent to participants. It very well might have been. I haven't said it wasn't. I've said I don't...
It's a participants newsletter so presumably participants saw it--they were the audience. They published four newsletters. This was #3. The others...
To be clear, it was posted. I have no idea if it was sent out. Some commenters have written that it was sent out, but that would be inaccurate. Is...
