Did you know (Page 1/1) MidEngineManiac DEC 13, 06:42 PM The vaxx can protect you against car crashes ! https://fortune.com/well/20...ords-pfizer-moderna/ This just keeps getting better and better. Think I'll wait until it protects against utility bills !!! Zeb DEC 13, 08:22 PM Having waded through the study document, I find what I expected, but hoped not to. No correction was made for miles driven or hours spent on the road. The vaxed would, I expect, spend more time at home, less miles on the road, allowing the those who were less afraid of the virus to take up the slack. Buried down in the "Discussion": quote Another limitation of our study is the lack of direct data on driving exposure in different groups. A 100% increase in driving distance, however, is unlikely to explain the magnitude of traffic risks observed in this study.65 A difference in driving distance would also not explain why the increased risks extended to pedestrians, why the increased risks were not lower in urban locations, and why the increased risks were not higher on weekends (when discretionary driving is common).66 To be sure, physical factors such as vehicle speed and distance are controlled by the driver and part of the mechanism that ultimately results in a traffic crash. These physical unknowns do not change the importance of our study for estimating prognosis. Our study has other limitations.... Many vehicle factors remain unexplored, including speed, spacing, configuration, location, weather, and distances driven. The study does not test the reliability of COVID vaccination as a proxy for COVID vaccine hesitancy. The available data do not examine long-term trends, test at-fault liability, or assess measurement error that biases results toward the null.58 These uncertainties are further opportunities for future science.10 Wouldn't more time on the road means more exposure to crashes? Thanks, statistics. Numbers will tell you anything you want to hear if you torture them long enough. randye DEC 13, 08:43 PM quote Originally posted by Zeb: Numbers will tell you anything you want to hear if you torture them long enough.
