Reading the Nov 10 Herper article and the Amarin FAQ page on mineral oil confirms the Herper falsehoods I described, that Thero correctly called fake news.

Fine - the subsequent data/stories about blood work changes in the placebo arms of other trials did indicate that the negative values in placebo were 'normal' and likely not caused by the mineral oil. But the KOLs were being asked very shortly after the Vascepa data came out. ANY(!) paradigm shift, i.e. a trial that goes strongly against conventional wisdom, should expect pushback (i.e. searching for how the trial was incorrect), especially as an immediate response. But again, he was summarizing a fairly picked group of KOLs (i.e. he didn't cherry pick the KOLs to be negative).
