I agree, it deserves better scientific treatment. I'd be shocked if such a study isn't being conducted as we speak.

Fully agree. I would be really interested in seeing such a study.

more studies should be done.

Strongly agree with this. It'd be nice to see some studies tackle this angle.

Yeah getting some studies and info on this would be great.

Yes please: submit a proper scientific article about this research.

It’d be interesting if a proper study was done. It could turn out to be better. We won’t know till we try.

Not to say everything is perfect, but I'd like to see those credible studies.

There have been studies on people as well, with encouraging results: http://stm.sciencemag.org/content/9/377/eaai8700

as well as

Still, more work needs to be done.


I would like to see that study too. I would consider the results of both studies valuable for different reasons.

I would love to see a study too.

I'd love to see a study that proves any of that.

The article seemed to imply that's one thing that deserves more research.

It would be nice to see some actual research backing a claim like this.

That's literally the study this thread is talking about. It's great that they did it -- it should have been done in early 2020, all over the world. We should have dozens of other studies just like it.

The fact that we don't is an indication of how hard it's been to pursue any sort of science in this area. Almost nobody funds it, you can't get it published if it doesn't fit the public health narrative, and even if you do, the the news media won't report on it, and it might just get censored on social media.


I would genuinely enjoy reading published science that supports your proposition. I've not seen much, if any.

That's a great point. Their study is a good starting point but it's hard to get anything concrete out of it. I hope they can continue with something like what you proposed.

That's interesting. It surely deserves a study rather than relying on anecdotal evidence.

True. It would be interesting to conduct an empirical study about this and raise people's awareness at the same time.

This is certainly interesting. Would love to see this study done on people. It would be big news if it held up those results.
