Transparency of COVID-19 vaccine trials: decisions without data
Transparency of COVID-19 vaccine trials: decisions without data
### Summary box Access to data for drugs and vaccines has historically been fairly limited to journal article publications and hard-to-access and difficult to read regulatory reports.1 But the past decade has witnessed strides in clinical trial data transparency. A wide range of institutions, from pharmaceutical companies, government agencies, trade organisations, journals and not-for-profit organisations, have all acknowledged the importance of data sharing, including the release of deidentified individual participant data. Many policies, regulations and platforms now exist to facilitate data access, including landmark transparency policies from the European Medicines Agency (EMA)2 3 and Health Canada.4 Both regulators now post on their websites, sections of the licensure dossier received by the industry (https://clinicaldata.ema.europa.eu/ and https://clinical-information.canada.ca/). There are also industry and academic platforms to facilitate third-party access to trial data and documents, including ClinicalStudyDataRequest.com, Yale University Open Data Access (YODA) Project and Vivli.5 In 2013, the US and European industry trade organisations endorsed a joint statement on clinical trial data sharing, making a series of commitments that ‘recognise the importance of sharing clinical trial data in the …

Stats Not The Whole Story! – HART
Stats Not The Whole Story! – HART
The statistical jiggery-pokery employed since 2020 is so outrageous it is perhaps best viewed through the lens of (dark) comedy, so we forewarn you in advance that — in a change from our usual (possibly over-sober) tone — the following article has been written in a somewhat jocular manner, despite covering a topic that is very much not a laughing matter.

Coronavirus and Dodgy Death Numbers - Global Research
Not only are the coronavirus models being used by WHO and the most national health agencies based on highly dubious methodologies, and not only are the tests being used of wildly different quality, that only indirectly confirm antibodies of a possible COVID-19 illness. Now the actual designations of deaths related to coronavirus are being revealed […]

VAERS Is Broken
Is the US’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System broken?
Is the US’s Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System broken?
A BMJ investigation has raised concerns that the VAERS system isn’t operating as intended and that signals are being missed. Jennifer Block reports Three weeks after receiving a second dose of a covid vaccine, Robert Sullivan collapsed at home on his treadmill. An anaesthesiologist in Maryland, USA, he was a particularly fit 49 year old: the week before falling ill, he’d been happily skiing at altitude in Colorado. Sullivan was given a diagnosis of sudden onset pulmonary hypertension, which is generally progressive, can be fatal, and in most cases can’t be cured. The condition is rare, especially in middle aged men. Sullivan decided to file a report in the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which collects reports of symptoms, diagnoses, hospital admissions, and deaths after vaccination for the purpose of capturing post-market safety signals. But the submission process was a glitchy race against the clock. “The format is cumbersome and it times you out,” he tells The BMJ . For his troubles, Sullivan received a confirmation by email and a temporary “e-report” number. He learnt from his doctor’s office that a VAERS representative had requested medical records. Then he didn’t hear back for a year. VAERS is supposed to be user friendly, responsive, and transparent. However, investigations by The BMJ have uncovered that it’s not meeting its own standards. Not only have staffing levels failed to keep pace with the unprecedented number of reports since the rollout of covid vaccines but there are signs that the system is overwhelmed, reports aren’t being followed up, and signals are being missed. The BMJ has spoken to more than a dozen people, including physicians and a state medical examiner, who have filed VAERS reports of a serious nature on behalf of themselves or patients and were never contacted by clinical reviewers or …
