Fauci: Americans “Don’t Believe Science”

Dear Dr Fauci;

Can you please show me where in the scientific method it calls for “belief”?
No you can’t because it’s not in there.

Can you show me where it says “consensus of experts was reached” or “the majority of scientists say so”?
No you can’t because it’s not in there.

So what is the scientific method based on? Predictions, predictions and more predictions. Here is a refresher for you:

Now Dr Fauci can you please tell us what predictions you and your “authority” figures in science got right on this issue?

I’m glad I could help you out there fella now STFU and PFO.

Let me correct that headline:

Americans don’t believe Fauci.

Nor any other government promoted expert.

Good grief, how often can you change positions 180 degrees, get it wrong, exaggerate. We have the same problem in Canada with a “Dr.” (once) Tam.

Here in Germany we have a new hotspot with about 700 new infections one ofthe last days, the last hotspots too, in an industrial slaughter house . Now the are closing again schools etc.
But R0 isn’t concerned, is proclaimed. Why ?

For staying permanently below 1.0, the changed the way to define the R0 value.
The use now average last 8 days new infected / average the last 8 days before the first ones, so they tell to be at 0.86 or so.
The earlier way was to calculate only with 4 days, and than you get, surprise, surprise, a value of today 2.09, before 2.14 and one day earlier 2.29
They are so good, aren’t they ? 😀
I call that self-deception.

“One of the problems we face in the United States is that unfortunately, there is a combination of an anti-science bias that people are — for reasons that sometimes are, you know, inconceivable and not understandable — they just don’t believe science and they don’t believe authority”

We weren’t allowed to question drug companies when they paid scientists to tell us thalidomide was safe for pregnant women.
>>>Because, they said, the science was incontrovertible.
We weren’t allowed to question oil companies when they paid scientists to tell us that cars wouldn’t run on unleaded fuel.
>>> Because, they said, you couldn’t argue with science.
We weren’t allowed to question the Nazis when they paid scientists to tell us that Jews, gays, and gypsies were subhuman.
>>> Because, they said, the science was beyond question.
We weren’t allowed to question sugar manufacturers when they paid Harvard scientists to tell us sugar was good for us.
>>> Because, they said, the science was unassailable.
We weren’t allowed to question our government when they paid scientists to tell us agent orange was not a health risk for veterans.
>>> Because, they said, the science was settled.
Why can’t we question the government when they pay scientists to tell us the world will end if we don’t wear a mask and stop global warming.

For thousands of years ordinary people have been questioning scientists, their governments, and religious institutions.
Asking questions of the powerful should never be a crime nor a reason for ridicule.
