Saturday Links

Posted on September 16, 2023September 16, 2023 by John C. Goodman

Did the Social Sciences Research Network (SSRN) censor a meta study showing that lock downs had no effect on covid?

A smart pill — the size of a blueberry! — can be used to automatically detect key biological molecules in the gut that suggest problems, and wirelessly transmit the information in real time.

Robin Hansen: World population will peak in about thirty years, and then will likely fall by half every generation or two.

How the government sets Medicare prices: it’s “a pattern of combining dated, imprecise cost reports with idiosyncratic and opaque adjustments that were not constructed to guarantee the best outcomes for the dollars spent.”

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
