Questioning "the science"

Comes down to which Scientists you believe and trust though doesn’t it?

They all seem to have very different theories.

We are being told via the media that the numbers of Positive Covid tests are actually falling, which wasn’t what the Scientists said on Sunday night .

DD2 and the 2 GCs have just tested negative as did her ex. but his partner and one of her children are both positive, their only symptom is that the whole family have heavy colds , even the ones that are apparently negative.

It’s very confusing.

That didn't work. But if anyone is interested it's Dr Mike Yeadon on YouTube.
For anyone on here who uses an inhaler for asthma or copd: this man developed this while at Imperial College.
I think his opinions are well worth listening to.

Your not alone in thinking this.
What I want to know is: why. Why are other very cleaver, knowledgeable scientists opinions being dismissed.https://youtu.be/ZrPTTgAFZnE

It really is important for us all to look at the statistics as a whole, not just the ones being pushed at us.
There are many frightened citizens out there and though we should be fearful of any new disease in reality deaths compared to what is normally expected are not very much higher.
The lockdowns are to protect the NHS by delaying the inevitable spread. Eventually we will all be exposed but in time better treatments and understanding of how to boost our immune systems will get us through this.
I don’t believe in conspiracy theories. I see almost every country in the world flailing about for a solution and wrecking their economies in the process.

I'm surprised and disappointed by how many intelligent and educated people are blindly accepting "the science" and "the scientists" without looking into this for themselves. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but an independent thinker. Instead of accepting all the scaremongering, please read this article and decide for yourselves:https://lockdownsceptics.org/what-sage-got-wrong/
