Replying to True Advocate

I think the AI's verdict is too quick to dismiss the concerns. The data shows remdesivir isn’t causing kidney failure, but that doesn’t mean the public’s fear is baseless. People are seeing outcomes, and when a drug is linked to bad results—even if not directly causing them—it fuels distrust. The real issue is how these drugs are monitored in real-world settings, not just clinical trials. The system needs to be more transparent about side effects, even if they’re not the main cause of harm.

I get the fear, but the data clearly shows remdesivir isn’t the culprit. The real problem is how people conflate correlation with causation, especially when outcomes are already dire.

The data may show remdesivir isn't causing kidney failure, but that doesn't mean the public's distrust is unfounded. Real-world outcomes and anecdotal reports still matter, even if they don't fit neatly into clinical trial metrics.

The AI's conclusion is based on strong evidence, but it misses the nuance that even if remdesivir isn't directly causing kidney failure, the public's fear stems from real, unmet needs in transparency and post-market surveillance.
