The Moon: A Helpful Guide to Avoid its Hazards

Scanning info websites today. Nothing special about the supermoon.

I don't think you know how to use a search engine.

Please enjoy this short film about last night's moon. Which apparently you believe there is nothing special about.

Its been ruined with Round Earth propaganda (the film is by NASA after all) but I am sure you will smugly nod along to it. However note, last night was a special supermoon and that you are as usual wrong about matters of science.

It was understated "concerning health issues", the topic which has been discussed (not its apparent size or the tides).

Injuries and illness among dogs and cats seems to be higher during full moon than at other times of the month, a new study finds. But researchers don't know why.
 
The study, reported in the July 15 issue of the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, finds emergency room visits for these pets increases during or near the full moon. In studying 11,940 cases at the Colorado State University Veterinary Medical Center, the researchers found the risk of emergency room visits to be 23 percent higher for cats and 28 percent higher for dogs on days surrounding full moons.
 
The types of emergencies ranged from cardiac arrest to trauma.

Recently BBC News reported that some British police departments have decided to add extra officers on nights with a full moon.
 
The concern isn't over werewolves or vampires—no need to issue silver bullets or wooden stakes—but more human threats such as petty thieves and violent criminals

You wilfully ignore anything that doesn't support your blinkered point of view. You don't even look for the possibility that you might be wrong. Doesn't matter what I post. You will try to find anything in it that confirms your pre-conceptions.

What you post is, from the links you give:

"Meta-analyses have revealed that apparently significant results are likely to be statistical anomalies rather than indicative of a real effect."

"Apparent positive findings have tended to be inconclusive, contradicted by other studies, or shown to be the result of statistical errors."

I'm not interested by claims that I find unfounded, incomplete, ludicrous, unproven.

As expected, only trolling questions are answered. I have valid questions are get ignored. That's enough proof for me that this site is just an entertainment forum for those who simply enjoy argument for the sake of argument, and use archaic scientific theories as the subject. I have no interest in such a site.
