I think it's better to say you don't have answers than to keep being wrong: * no human-to-human transmision * masks don't work -> masks hurt you -> masks are

I think it's better to say you don't have answers than to keep being wrong: * no human-to-human transmision * masks don't work -> masks hurt you -> masks are mandatory * transmitted by a pangolin -> we don't know what the intermediary was * it's racist to say it came from a lab -> it probably came from a lab * restrictions for a few weeks -> restrictions for months, and maybe brought back seasonally * it will all be over when x % get vaccinated -> we never said vaccines protect from infection, just bad reactions to covid

When you read those things last year, did they come with an ironclad guarantee? No? Some sort of contract? No? Were those statements published in a book titled "Pure and Incontrovertible Truths" or were they, like all human knowledge, subject to learning and changing? No? That's because the universe is a complex place that humans don't have all the answers for. I like that science gets better and better. I mean, feel free to put dung and leeches on your open wounds -- because that's how it USED to be, darnit! -- I'll stick to antiseptics and antibacterial ointments. And when science figures out something better and proves it, we'll use that!
