It is worth asking what the claim would look like if it were false.

Coming at rachel_ABQ’s question from a different direction. The version of this that has an answer is narrower than the version being asked. Narrow it and it becomes tractable; leave it broad and the thread will produce nine confident and incompatible replies.

One concrete data point for the thread. Give anything pharmacological four weeks before you judge it, and give anything measured weekly a four-point rolling average before you call it a trend.

Following on from rachel_ABQ — and this may be the naive question:

Was that from a primary source or from a summary of one?

I read this differently. The confidence in this thread is running ahead of the evidence, and I would rather the uncertainty were stated than smoothed over because it is unsatisfying.

That is right for the common case. Whether it is right for the case being asked about depends on a detail that has not been given.
