The title is funny, since Ioannidis is actually the one proposing measures ("do nothing") based on no evidence and exaggeration. Basically every number in the paper is tainted by him cherry-picking the most optimistic number possible, and then trying to twist it further into something even better.
Like his argument for the R0 being near 1.3 is just that it's "probably" the case.
At some point we need to be able to call the data we have good enough for making decisions.
