Do you take your car to a mechanic? Do you hire plumbers or electricians or carpenters when you need them? Do you climb tall trees that have to be pruned? Do you hire legal advice when needed? etc. etc. ? I'm not saying take the FIRST one since it's advisable to get multiple opinions (at least three) for anything that you yourself are not qualified to do. But, holy moly, that's an incredible statement for you to make. ever hear of a second opinion ?--guess not ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainecoons Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Something for the vaccine proponents to think about: https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/07/convincing-the-skeptics/ Quote But a study done at MIT showed that a substantial portion of public-health skepticism was highly informed, scientifically literate, and sophisticated in the use of data. Skeptics used the same data sets as those with the orthodox views on public health. From a writeup of the study: Combining computational and anthropological insights led the researchers to a more nuanced understanding of data literacy. Lee says their study reveals that, compared to public health orthodoxy, “antimaskers see the pandemic differently, using data that is quite similar. I still think data analysis is important. But it’s certainly not the salve that I thought it was in terms of convincing people who believe that the scientific establishment is not trustworthy.” Lee says their findings point to “a larger rift in how we think about science and expertise in the U.S.” That same rift runs through issues like climate change and vaccination, where similar dynamics often play out in social media discussions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 "Statistical studies" are open to individual interpretation. This article from the New York Times is about real life experiences and IMO, far more convincing. https://www.yahoo.com/news/undervaccinated-swaths-arkansas-covid-19-140520154.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, for those anti-proponents like you who filter the data their own special way, here is one of the latest headlines from that very publication: National Review Says the Vaccines Are Good: A Collection, listing a bunch of their own articles recommending vaccines. https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/national-review-says-the-vaccines-are-good-a-collection/ "In fact, the evidence is clear: National Review has been emphatic and relentless in extolling the virtues of these medical miracles. Moreover, we’ve advocated the vaccines by being harsh on the demagogues and patient with the laymen — a strategy I would say is both righteous and effective."
