Good grief....

Did people really drink bleach to prevent COVID-19? A guide for protecting survey data against problematic respondents

Survey respondents who are non-attentive, respond randomly, or misrepresent who they are can impact the outcomes of surveys. Prior findings reported by the CDC have suggested that people engaged in highly dangerous cleaning practices during the COVID-19 pandemic, including ingesting household cleaners such as bleach. In our attempts to replicate the CDC’s results, we found that 100% of reported ingestion of household cleaners are made by problematic respondents. Once inattentive, acquiescent, and careless respondents are removed from the sample, we find no evidence that people ingested cleaning products to prevent a COVID-19 infection. These findings have important implications for public health and medical survey research, as well as for best practices for avoiding problematic respondents in all survey research conducted online.

I thought we all knew those claims were bunk. I was assuming this was known. Apparently not. The CDC claims that people were gurgling bleach, could not be replicated by anyone. No one could find these people who gurgling bleach.

The number was more than one and it was out of the number of people with covid at that time, not every single man, woman & child in the U.S..

Deniers and Trumpers had the chance……they blew it. Trump had no intention building a wall, or improving* healthcare or doing infrastructure. Nothing. For two years when in full power he focused on tax cuts..,.that was it.
Now deniers and Trumpers complain….amazing.

Financial Times:
The largest European banks still operating in Russia paid more than €800 million in taxes to the Russian budget in 2023, four times more than before the war.

Raiffeisen Bank International, Unicredit, ING, Commerzbank, Deutsche Bank, Intesa Sanpaol, etc., have all gotten rich.
