Yes, though it's not much of a problem for those unwilling to take the leap based on only one or two emergent studies, who might prefer relying on decades of safety data.
Oh, but then that entirely sensible and understandable action might get one censored, deleted, fired, fined and/or discriminated against as a third class citizen. Cui bono?
- tasogare 5y agoExactly. I've argued on social media with "trust the science" people: none of them were scientists while I am one. People in general have no idea how the sausage is made and how broken the system is. A year or more ago I was joking with a coworker "I hope medical studies are done more seriously than what we do". Today I wouldn't make the same joke given how the situation went out of control with states enforcing authoritarian policies based on poor understanding of how science work.
