Back in September Joe Biden promised the country that he'd "follow the science."

'Follow the science' and other principles of Biden's pandemic response plan
Entering the White House at the height of a global pandemic, President-elect Joe Biden's administration plans to respond by ramping up and simplifying the vaccination process, tackling equity issues, and, above all, following the science, according to two members of Biden's COVID-19 task force.Let's check on that."From vaccines to therapeutics, to diagnostics, to other public health recommendations, everything is going to be informed by the science," said task force member and infectious disease specialist Céline Gounder during a webcast hosted by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health on Thursday.
First, the science.

CDC director says schools can safely reopen without vaccinating teachers
CDC: Schools Should Reopen With Precautions
Teachers don’t have to be vaccinated for schools to reopen safely, CDC director says

The Biden response? Not so fast.....
The White House claimed Thursday that CDC director Rochelle Walensky spoke "in her personal capacity" when she said that vaccinating teachers was not required for reopening schools.C/NET, Nov 9Walensky said at a Wednesday CDC meeting that vaccinating teachers "is not a prerequisite" for returning to in-person instruction, citing a growing volume of scientific data. In response to a question about Walensky's statements, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said the doctor did not make her statement on behalf of the CDC.
"Dr. Walensky spoke to this in her personal capacity," Psaki said at the press conference. "Obviously she's the head of the CDC, but we're going to wait for final guidance to come out."
Donald Trump ignored the science. Joe Biden must rely on it
The incoming president and his cabinet have a monumental task ahead of them. If the new administration places science at the center of its policies and decision-making process, if it respects US scientists and follows the evidence on climate change; if it relies on fact rather than fiction, then America can take care of its own -- all of them.Who's really running the show?It's time to take us to the chorus, Joe.
Randi Weingarten, President of the Teachers Union
But despite its efforts, the team underestimated how hard it would be to sell the plan to the teachers unions that had largely backed Biden’s presidential campaign — especially without the promise of a vaccine, an adviser involved in the planning said.Chicago teachers simply do not want to go back to teaching. Here the Teachers Union VP lobbies against in person teaching- from Puerto Rico“We didn’t think teachers unions would be so reluctant,” the adviser said, adding that Psaki’s statement this week that reopening meant returning kids to class one day a week was far from the team’s original vision.

“We will follow the science”, Biden said and “the science says it is time for my nap and more B-12 injections”
Biden is following Doctor’s orders and his chief of staff, that’s about it.
Follow the science right to your blog?
Get bent, pimp-boy.
Except when it comes to biological males claiming to be female, like your assistant health secretary.
Edited for clarity/accuracy.
Isn’t Euthanasia a scientific act? Is that what he has in mind? He seems to be willing to allow politically woke scientists to dictate policy. Where is Dr. Kevorkian when you need him? Dead.
Joe: We have to follow the science.
Elmer : Which way did he go, which way did he go...
Joe: Look Elmer, We have to follow the science.
Elmer: I’m huntin wrabbit... which way did he go?
Joe: Look, bub, we have to follow the science.
Elmer: I’m looking for a wrabbit... hahuhah
Joe: You dumb ass pony soldier... you have to follow the science.
Elmer: Hey, you have furry hair legs... you a wbabbit?
Joe: I... uh...
BANG BANG BANG
Bugs: Geez, what a morune!
Bwahahahahahha!

Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.
In this revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.
Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been over shadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.
The prospect of domination of the nation's scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded.
Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

seems that Earth has been misplaced. According to a new map of the Milky Way galaxy, the Solar System's position isn't where we thought it was. Not only is it closer to the galactic centre - and the supermassive hole therein, Sagittarius A* - it's orbiting at a faster clip.
It further noted other "errors" in SCIENCE:
A good recent example of this is the red giant star Betelgeuse, which turned out to be closer to Earth than previous measurements suggested. This means that it's neither as large nor as bright as we thought. Another is the object CK Vulpeculae, a star that exploded 350 years ago. It's actually much farther away, which means that the explosion was brighter and more energetic, and requires a new explanation, since previous analyses were performed under the assumption it was relatively low energy
Next time some dope spouts off about science, remind them " SCIENCE IS NOT MATHEMATICS."
Bidet wouldn’t know science if it bit him on the obama.
Here’s some common sense science.
Ivermectin, or hydroxychloroquine + zinc.
Drop the damn masks, and reopen the economy.
Case closed !
We will follow “political” Science! There ! fixed it
and they will do it with “Political” Medicine.
Neither real science nor real medicine
