analysis of the available clinical data


What, and pretend that the stuff that IRB's won't approve just-- doesn't MATTER??

:insane: :dunce:


Sorry, but I have not got a lot of patience for this kind of thing.  That's just lousy science.

I mean-- does ANYONE truly think that designing a braking system in a car can just, I dunno...   ignore friction in doing calculations?  Because it's too hard to measure or something?

No?

Well, then, why is it okay to IGNORE the people who face the largest risks of death from cross-contamination when crafting policies to (nominally, clearly-- because it's far from pragmatically so) "protect" food allergic consumers.

I'm not buying it.  This is about protecting food manufacturers from liability, and giving them a pass on disclosure.  Nothing more.

Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.
