Vin Gupta for MSNBC
Astonishing errors
I recently criticized a study in Nature Communication, which was a flawed observational study with residual confounding and time-zero issues. Vin Gupta, the correspondent for MSNBC pushed the study’s conclusions uncritically.
Watch my analysis here
I got curious, and reviewed Dr. Gupta’s other published stances. Wow….
This was his take after the disastrous first debate. Mr. Biden would later drop out of the race.
This statement was incorrect.
Also incorrect.
Incorrect— because Florida kept schools open and did not do substantively worse than anyone else.
This was also incorrect.
I will leave it to readers to draw their own conclusions as to why MS NBC employs this commenter.
My conclusion regarding his employment is that Dr. Gupta is preaching to the MSNBC choir and apparently management likes it that way. We can only hope that someday the choir will become so small that it can no longer be profitable.
This is why the public has lost trust in physicians. We are responsible for our undoing. Dr Gupta’s assertions defy common sense, much less medical knowledge.
