Another indication of the sad state of X/Twitter: Someone using the handle

Paul Romer (notice the 's' at the end)

is pretending to be me, reposting many of my old posts. Don't be fooled.

Revealing, and very damning, article by Victoria Colliver

Here we go:

If Offit truly cares about the cost versus benefit of a vax, why hasn't he done a cost-benefit analysis?

Why does a journalist quote him without demanding numbers?

Good science relies on quantification, not hunches and hand-wringing.
