A Doctor's Warning...
Do not outsource your logic or common sense. You may not be an expert in virology or epidemiology, or any other scientific discipline. But you can spot a blatant contradiction, you can see when things donβt add up, you can reason logically from premises to conclusions.
You are perfectly capable of recognizing that even science is subject to extrinsic fashions, and oftentimes βconsensusβ judgments are swayed by all too human motivations.
I passionately love science. I have loved studying it and practicing it from my earliest years.Science is a wondrous enterprise, a very noble and good pursuit. But science will fail us the moment we turn it into an idol. And scientists will fail us the moment we turn them into an oracle.
