To be fair, that's not an unreasonable concern for them to have. Masks running out for healthcare professionals would have been an absolute disaster.

- bluediscussy22 5y agoThis is exactly the problem. No matter what it is not ok for someone to lie for what they perceive is the greater good, but scientists who we thought we could trust show that's exactly what they do and keep doing. Trust is what our entire society is built upon and the foundation of science.
- Retric 5y agoThese people aren’t scientists their doctors acting as public health officials it’s a very different group. These people don’t have much hard data at the start and simply get a lot of things wrong such as the need to keep disinfecting everything. They also have the dual jobs of keep people alive and keeping society functioning.
- nicoburns 5y agoNo matter what. Really? I'm pretty sure we all have a line we wouldn't cross. No good having a society built on a foundation of science if the planet is destroyed by a nuclear war for example.
