This is going to be a long post; buckle up, if you’re interested.
I stated that I take what the BMA says publicly with a pinch of salt; I do, and I stand by it, because they were 100% wrong on the spacing of vaccines question, and they could be wrong again. Maybe they are not, but news bulletins and social media are not the vehicles for valid scientific debate.
I haven’t commented on, or denied the content of the posts and links that lead to scientists’ work, because as I have said several times it’s not my speciality.
I pointed out that a graph had been posted that was misleading, because it could lead to people thinking hospital cases were closer to historic highs than is the case.
In reply, I’ve had snide remarks that I don’t know what I’m talking about, that I think I’m better than others. (I paraphrase) I wrote something I immediately took back because it’s not what I meant. Told I was throwing my weight about.
Instead of jumping on bandwagons and defending your rights to have opinions about complex scientific issues, if you’d actually read what I said you might have noticed that I never commented at all on the ridiculous “Freedom Day” idea. At least in Scotland we don’t have to put up with such populist nonsense.
