When I read things like this my first thought is "Post hoc ergo propter hoc"?
While I do think cannabis may induce anxiety it could very well be that those prone to anxiety are the ones more likely to consume cannabis in the first place. there is no way of knowing from this set of data which direction the association goes.
this is why double-blind studies are always critical and any conclusions drawn from data that is not double-blind in nature should be considered highly suspect.
@cowanon Yup all of those.. I mean hell all the covid-19 stuff in general is preliminary enough that we should be critical of any conclusions except for the most obvious ones (like its a real virus and when unchecked it overloads our hospitals so its serious)..
@freemo >any conclusions drawn from data that is not double-blind in nature should be considered highly suspect. Such as all those studies declaring themselves a proof that 5G is terribad4u, corndog19 is a bioweapon/planned-demic, wearing masks does nothing against corndog19, and so on?
