>>cardiologists are now admitting they are wrong.
Not a surprise - almost everything initially said about covid was wrong; maybe next time people saying things should be so absolutely definitive about things they clear don't know enough about (yet). I would rather doctors hedged their advice/proclamations a bit, then to be definitive when they shouldn't be.
- waihtis 3y agoThe ridiculous truth is that we got zealous COVID absolutists as an counteraction to Donald Trump. It was purely a political phenomena.
- downWidOutaFite 3y agoThe "it's just a cold" crowd was also a political reaction and they didn't come out look any better.

Then we'd be complaining that they're telling us two wholely different opinions. Medicine, like science, is based on available data. I have no problem with them admitting they were wrong based on new data.
- ejb999 3y agoagreed - but not only did they know they didn't have all the information - so they were in effect making a guess based on the limited information they had - but they also took the extra step of discrediting anyone that held a different opinion. That is not 'science'.
