Is Communist China stealing Medicare data through air pollution researchers?

Check out Jim Enstrom’s letter to the editor of Nature about 69 million Medicare records made available to Chinese researchers in the US. The lead researcher mentioned is Emory University’s Liuhua Shi, who is from China and may still be a Chinese national. Is anyone making sure China isn’t stealing personal and private Medicare data?

Western Wildfires prove Milloy correct on PM2.5

Despite high levels of PM2.5 in outdoor air from Western wildfires, the AP reports no one has died from the “thick smoke.” I proved that PM2.5 kills no one in “Scare Pollution: Why and How to Fix the EPA.”

NYTimes refuses to publish letter critical of reporting on EPA ‘secret science’ rule

In response to the New York Times recent front-page report on EPA’s coming re-proposal of its ‘secret science/transparency rule, Stan Young and Warren Kindzierski submitted the letter below, which was rejected by the Times. We present it here as an example of the reality denied to readers of the “paper of record.”

To the editor:

“E.P.A. to Limit Science Used to Write Public Health Rules” fails to mention the science that supports the Environmental Protection Agency’s proposed rule, Strengthening Transparency in Regulatory Science. For example, a 2014 study examined more than 2 million emergency hospital admissions and more than 600,000 deaths from heart disease in England and Wales. A 2017 California study looked at all death certificates for the years 2000-2012 (data public since 2015). Neither study found an association of air quality with deaths. Yet data from the Six Cities study, which claims an association, is not publicly available. Since the publicly available data casts doubt on previous studies that inform our air pollution regulations, the E.P.A. is entirely justified to propose requiring that the science informing regulations should have analysis data sets that are publicly available, or available to a trusted third party. If the science behind the regulations is any good, public scrutiny will confirm it. If that science doesn’t reproduce, the E.P.A. should know—as should all Americans.
