HYPERTENSION
In #Antifragile: Pharma needs to medicate the mildly "sick" (hypertensive) as
1) these live long
2) >100 more midly "sick" ppl than very sick, so more profitable to "cure" the healthy
Pharma reclassifies the "sick" to get clients.
But relation HBP-risk is nonlinear!pic.twitter.com/1x0X9oIzxu
2- Doctors are statistically naive & their statisticians are imbeciles; they have a hard time understanding non-linear dose-response so they binarize. And pharma takes them for a ride by bucketting numbers (mildly ill + very ill produces an illusion of risk for mildly ill).pic.twitter.com/1ZRZnUCJNx

Similar argument can be made about the flu vaccine; it is the least effective and targets a mildly serious condition, but it needs to be taken repeatedly over the years, thus it is the most profitable.
It's wrong the vaccine has basically no risk, but flu has. If you can low the chance of taking the flu with no side effects you should.
Vaccine HAS risks.
Yes they do. Normally the risk of a shot will clearly offset the risks related to getting the disease, in the case of flu vaccine... Well, I am sure big pharma will be able to show us nice charts showing the same, but remember: do not ask the barber if you need a haircut.
Another mistake. The health guidelines are not made by pharmaceutical industries!
Prove it. Prove how they influence WHO.
Doctors frequently conflate statistical significance with Clinical Significance, leading to faulty clinical decsion-making!
At 45 and very healthy, I’m never asked by doctors IF I’m on any meds but what meds I’m on. Always surprised by “none”. Over treatment is an epidemic.
No over treatment is not an epidemic. Most people don’t take care of themselves and develop lifestyle type diseases. The best medical advice is eat healthy, drink water, and exercise. Let’s quit blaming Pharma for everything.
On numerous occasions, I’ve been offered pharmaceuticals for no reason including statins for total cholesterol near 200 even when my HDL is over 70 due to exercise. Yes overmecication is epidemic and driven by pharma self interest and naive doctors.
I work on pharma and have for over 10 years. Believe me it’s not the rep that drives that from the doctor. From what you are telling me the doctor is just not a good doctor and doesn’t know what they are doing. I see that all day, most doctors are not good at what they do.
I had aflutter, had the electrician doctor zap the offending heart spot, was told to take three meds and the meds that nearly killed me. Now, diet, exercise and CBD are my best friends.
Thanks for sharing! Idea: a series of Kaggle competitions, all the data from previous studies is presented, participants have to prove/disprove correlations, without establishing any potential answer pre-contest. Crowdsourcing + subscription service to fund prices could work.
Pre-specification of the analysis for clinical trials is important to stop fishing. I don’t know why you’d want to put something this important in the hands of amateurs.
18 months ago my BP was 160/116...Dr. prescribed losartan...50mg...helped...I bought a bike and a a bench weight set...have completely stopped meds my average BP is now 121/82...I ride 4 miles and heavy lift every other day. Had to stop meds because of dizzy spells. I'm 59
