Since 2010, however, the number of statin prescriptions has gone up 75%, and there have been proclamations that not only is the science "settled" because of a meta-analysis laundering past studies (that could never find a convincing benefit to lowered cholesterol), but that 1) twice as many people should be taking statins, and 2) maybe we should just put them in the water!*
What passes for science in medicine is usually bad, but it's exceptionally bad in the cases of the two classes of drugs that are the most prescribed, meant to be taken for the rest of your life, and coincidentally the biggest moneymakers: statins and SSRIs. They both also, even at best, claim very small benefits.
This thread is just going to consist of sloganeering and people calling you ignorant. Or a "denier," in order to compare disbelief in the tiny effect that statins claim (25-35%, under particular conditions) to disbelief in the Holocaust.
* Which was suggested every five years before any of these new, "conclusive" studies appeared. They'll just keep pitching it until they get that payday.
