Becky B Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 3 hours ago, fools said: If the 'experts' flip flop on masks and a whole host of other things, surely that puts into question their expertise. Masks have been around a long time, viruses have been around a long time, pandemic planning has been around a long time. If you were an expert, you'd have done the science, and know the answer. Perhaps they were right in the first instance, and are now wrong. Perhaps the advice will change again next week. How can you have any confidence if they change their mind. The science has changed narrative is laughable, that's probably written on a whiteboard somewhere in a back room. Malcolm Tucker would be proud. The science hasn't changed, the 'experts' still don't know. Perhaps we should get some experts in who do know. "Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you'll know tomorrow." Men in Black, 1997.

RJRB Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I think that’s a reasonable article. The message seems to be that being double jabbed appears to have little effect on transmission,but a measurable mitigation on serious and fatal outcomes from contracting the virus. The author is on balance glad to say that he is double jabbed. This is a considerable leap forward from where we all were some months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As West 77 rightly says the knowledge on the peculiarities of Covid 19 are under constant review. Those with expertise in viruses and vaccines have made remarkable progress in a short space of time. There is no absolute expert waiting in the wings. Just a whole host of well qualified specialists who are collaborating on an ongoing exercise. . They've conned millions into taking a vaccine that doesn't work and causes heart problems and putting useless bits of cloth over their face for no reason, as you say - remarkable!!!
