CV and mad panic behaviour

1.  They are paying a penalty.  They are effectively gambling with their health.  The vaccine doesnt stop spreading, therefore, getting vaccinated will likely not change how this thing moves.

2.  True enough, but only the left seem to use this tool.  It attacks the person not the idea.  A clock is still right twice a day even if it is broken.

3. Scientific method is fine, but even scientists agree that there is more than one way to do science and it would be unscientific not to question the science.  Food for thought there, our early modelling of covid made an assumption each positive case ends up with an ICU admission.  Our understanding of this has already changed.  We also have discovered asymptomatic spreading.  Our testing for that has and has not changed.  Symptoms still seem to be the dictation of when someone gets tested (unless near a confirmed positive case) when we should be prophylactic testing everyone in the more at risk settings.

Anyway, here is a quote:

The practices of science

But it’s not time to forget everything we thought we knew about how scientists work, says Heidi Schweingruber. She should know. She’s the deputy director of the Board on Science Education at the National Research Council, in Washington, D.C.

In the future, she says, students and teachers will be encouraged to think not about the scientific method, but instead about “practices of science” — or the many ways in which scientists look for answers.

Schweingruber and her colleagues recently developed a new set of national guidelines that highlight the practices central to how students should learn science.

“In the past, students have largely been taught there’s one way to do science,” she says. “It’s been reduced to ‘Here are the five steps, and this is how every scientist does it.’“

But that one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t reflect how scientists in different fields actually “do” science, she says.
