1/3rd? False. 50% are not reproducible for most of the world and more than 80% out of China.

Science is not very scientific these days. It's almost as if it's a cultish religion.

If you read the article, he's not saying 1/3 of all scientific papers are made up. He took ~5000 in neuroscience and medicine and 1/3 of those were fake. You could probably reach the 50% number by doing a (much) larger pool, but this was just a small meta-analysis.
