Here's another dubious study. Does anyone know if we pay for this via our taxes?

I would point out immediately the below:

These numbers are a joke, yet I heard on LBC this morning 20+ % increases in this and that, clearly relative risk again. Hazard ratio as usual below the scientific standard. I don't care that this also criticises Veganism, I hate rubbish studies. I immediately look at relative risk and hazard ratio and the type of study.

This is like trying to find a particular grain of sand at the beach. At this rate we will all be breatharians.
