I'm not epistemologically nihilistic about scientists in this pandemic. Yes, we've been lied to, toyed with, and gaslighted. I believe truth exists, but it's really hard to find AND it may come with wider than usual confidence intervals.

For example, do I think the JH counts are totally kosher? No - we've seen too many revisions and heard from too many State officials about funny business in the recording of deaths, to not be skeptical. But, I believe a very nasty coronavirus infected over one million Americans and was a bigly contributing factor in the death of tens of thousands of people.

We have ALL read more technical medical journals and biostatistics papers this year than ever before...we are all a lot smarter than we were in January. Thus, I believe the FR powers of discernment are a lot better than that of Imperial College UK, and we aren't as National Enquirer about it.

I would add that in my opinion the biological virus from Wuhan has not been anywhere near as virulent or as powerful as the political one.
