I'm seeing epidemiologists make a logical fallacy about the COVID vax + blood clots. Saying the risk (or rate) is "1 in a million" = misleading
Here’s a quick breakdown on how to do better by #pharmacovigilance (PV) stats
Audience: #epitwitter #datascience #RxEpi Image
2/ Comparing to birth control risks isn't proper. The *type* of clot is different. But also, quantified risk of clots from The Pill are from studies where each patient was assessed for the outcome (side effect). That's not so with COVID vaccine data now
3/ In some of the COVID vax clinical trials, only 1-out-5 had systematic detailed assessment of side effects. For the other 80%, the trials relied on "spontaneous reporting"

A *product-centric* worldview, holds that abuse deterrence is primarily the property of the drug, and that that is the PRIMARY thing that changed with the reformulation, especially in the immediate aftermath.
A *person-centric* view holds that abuse deterrence is not merely a property of the drug, but rather an interaction between engineering and society, between physiochemical properties and point-of-prescribing medical decisions.
