Pressure to publish is rising as research time shrinks, finds survey of scientists www.nature.com/articles/d41...
"68% of respondents said the pressure to publish their research is greater than it was two to three years ago..."
This fuels poor quality pubs!

Bottom line of systematic assessment of studies on Covid vaccinations/boosters:
~50% reduction of hospitalization, across all adults (not just older) who are not immunocompromised
Real data on vaccine-induced myocarditis: occurred in 1-3 per 100,000 male adolescents
