This observation in the second hyperlink I sent regarding multiple sclerosis caught my eye: “ Caucasians are more frequently affected and the prevalence of the condition varies profoundly across different areas of the world, roughly following an increasing gradient from the equatorial zone - where it is below 5 cases per 100000 inhabitants - to the poles, reaching rates over 130 cases/100000 in several regions of Northern America, Europe and Australia[4-6]. Epidemiological studies indicate that genetic susceptibility, infections (particularly Epstein-Barr virus), reduced sun light exposure/blood levels of vitamin D, cigarette smoking, obesity, and increased dietary salt intake are risk factors for developing the disease but have not yet a completely established causative role[7].”
There is robust data indicating cancer rates increase as you move away from the equator. The hinted theme here is sunlight levels which impact vitamin D synthesis and vitamin D levels. Vitamin D deficiencies have been linked to high susceptibility to chronic infections, autoimmune diseases, along with an elevated cancer risk. This is nirvana for an epidemiologist…every case control study has to look at the myriad risk factors…age, sex, smoking, etc. It is hard to ignore this observation when the law of large numbers is at play…literally billions of people on the planet will fade these confounding variables. Cytodyn was on the other side of the case control variables with the severe critical COVID study, in which there was no protocol-based analysis baked in looking at age subgroups. Mortality risk with critical increases exponentially as you climb toward 80. By chance the treatment group ended up with a disproportionately large number with greater age. Had that been factored in the analysis we would probably have an approved drug and not be sitting at 13 cents. This is Heart of Darkness stuff so I won’t dwell on it but it is a fact FDA effectively sentenced millions to die over the p-value, while Fauci paved the way for remdesivir with the intellectually inconsistent “trending toward significance” comment. Dr J is a seasoned researcher and will ensure any study moving forward is well thought through and properly powered.
