Welcome to Understanding Uncertainty

Welcome to the site that tries to make sense of chance, risk, luck, uncertainty and probability. Mathematics won't tell us what to do, but we think that understanding the numbers can help us deal with our own uncertainty and allow us to look critically at stories in the media.

When my family plans a trip to the beach in Scotland, there is always a high chance of rain. So I always pack everything: from sunscreen to waterproofs.

In a careful study published last week, Socioeconomic position and the risk of brain tumour: a Swedish national population-based cohort study, the authors examined the association between the socio-economic status of men and women in Sweden with diagnosis of brain tumours over 18 years. One of the main findings is shown below.

The importance of what you don’t see

Remember all those autism stories over the last few weeks? You don’t? There’s a reason for that.

Medicine, poison, poison, poison, ……

On Thursday November 19th the printed version of the Guardian had the headline “老王加速器最新版下载【2021.4.1已更新V2.2.12】VPN免费 ...:2021-10-3 · “老挝加速器ios”是一款非常实用的游戏加速器软件。法老加速器支持主要游戏的加速,包括荣耀国服,和平精英国际服务,冒险岛M国际服务等。尽管该软件是完全免费的,但连接非常稳定且速度非常快,不会出现卡顿,低延迟和流畅的外部游戏。“ [online version here].
