[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^That is, this is specifically NOT to be "used to inform clinical practice." Thanks.[/quote]

That’s true of the vast majority of recent studies.   No one is saying this is gospel, and we aren’t clinicians.  We are discussing what this may portend if true on terns of infection and long term risk.  Precautionary principle is always based on limited info.  [/quote]

Fair enough, but then it should be discussed with explicit caveats, because a lot of preprint stuff never gets printed or gets markedly changed because of significant problems that come up on peer review.

Instead of sensible, thoughtful discussion, we get this:

As I stated, I'm not the neuroscientist, but -- I suspect the neuroscientist isn't bringing the myriad preprint articles into discussion because they know better than to do that. That's not a problem with the neuroscientist.[/quote]

That fact is, it's gotten much harder to have sensible, thoughtful discussion on here at all in the past several months, even among people who would probably get along fine in real life.  People make so many assumptions about one another and use ad hominem.  I know it's what is to be expected on DCUM, but the Health forum used to be a bit less of that.  [/quote]
