John Ioannidis published an article defending his low estimate of COVID-19's fatality rate.

It contains so many distortions that I'll try something I've never done on Twitter for a paper:

Go thru distortions page-by-page.

This will take awhile. 😑

@hausfath Within the uncertainty range of IPCC 1990 First Assessment Report's 1990-2025 projection.

"predicted rise from 1990 (to 2030) of 0.7–1.5 °C with a best estimate of 1.1 °C"

@hausfath 1990-2025 warming trend is ~0.25°C/decade.

psl.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/data/a…

Implies ~0.9°C of global warming for 1990-2025, i.e. close to the projected average value of 1°C.

@hausfath Still end up with ~0.25°C/decade when starting in 1995 to avoid cooling from the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption.

Dr. Anthony Fauci complained about death threats to him, his family, public health experts + staff, etc.

This thread will cover some of the rhetoric that may have contributed to that, along with surrounding context.

1:43:53 - 1:47:40 :
2/F

Fauci is not alone in receiving threats.

For example, there's Dr. Nicole Kleinstreuer:

"Death threats to NIH official spark debate over aggressive campaign to end animal research"
science.org/content/articl…

Threats sometimes lead to physical harm.

"of 510 researchers who had published on SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19, 38% acknowledged harassment ranging from personal insults to threats of violence"

The most secure position in science is one that's both:

1) supported by an evidence-based scientific consensus
2) disputed by Matt Ridley [@mattwridley]

This thread will provide some examples.

Ridley shows how one can get away with being wrong on topic after topic, as long one states the paranoid ideological narrative many conspiracy theorists want to hear.

Others made this point, such as Dave Farina.

So on to the secure positions that are:
1) supported by an evidence-based scientific consensus
2) disputed by Matt Ridley [@mattwridley]

There's an ongoing multidecadal global warming trend of ~0.3°C/decade.

@curryja No, it's just Koonin disinforming people again.

For example, he's still misrepresenting modern sea level rise compared to sea level rise in the 1930s.

Neither of you honestly care about evidence.

@curryja Koonin repeats the same misinformation as Pielke Jr.

The National Academies' report and the DOE report cite some of the same studies.
It's just that the former accurately represents them, while the latter distorts them.

@curryja More like the DOE report distorts @hausfath's research.

@curryja If it's anything like Steven Koonin's 2014 op-ed in WSJ, then it's filled with ideologically-motivated misinformation and denialism.

@curryja About 30% more warming occurred during the first quarter of the 21st century than during the last quarter of the 20th century.

Models did fine.
