What I see as an over riding question is: How do we ever figure out what the truth is? There is so much lying, or twisting of the so called science to take advantage of people. And then it is so difficult for most of us to accept that government entities paid for by our tax dollars may actually not have the public's best interest at heart. As I observe, it seems if our minds cannot accept this possibility,that the "scientific authorities" do not have the public's best interest at heart, we then work harder and harder to defend our erroneous position. Very challenging times.
Kathy - I agree completely. You're asking one of the most important questions from the covid debacle, and there are no easy answers. I've had to question everything I thought I knew, and once trusted sources of scientific and medical information are no longer trusted (eg, CDC). several areas to consider: ask about the money flow, and who has financial interests in the issue. Another key item for me: start with what you are convinced you know is true, and look for those who agree with at least that (native immunity was an example of that for me). And look for those who encourage open discussion and debate, vs. those who suppress or censor. That's how I started following Doctors John Ioannidis, Jay Bhattacharya, Scott Atlas from Stanford; Martin Kulldorff; Sunetra Gupta; Peter McCullough; the FLCCC; many others.
