The model is not reality


Just look at the state of mainstream media reporting, this from today’s Australian newspaper. Journalist Remy Varga should hang her head in shame.

A model is not reality. It is a supposition based on whatever methods and assumptions the modeller chooses. Change the assumptions and the result changes. Models do not prove anything. Yet here is Remy reporting as if she were part of the Pfizer public relations office. That modelling study is garbage. I know that even without reading it.

The age of inquisitive journalists is over.
