I don't answer gish-gallups. I respect people I'm talking to by asking one question at a time. I'll be patient and answer if you're good faith.

Some people do if they have a severe immune dysfunction. Most of us don't because we balance risk-protection against convenience.
I could stay in my house all the time and reduce my risk for getting hit by lightning, but it's most salient to do it in a thunderstorm. I use more pre-cautions when my risk is higher.
Right?

Which has absolutely NOTHING to do with "good messaging." Scientists and science are not at all concerned with making people feel good or having trust in any institutions
Which isn’t what good messaging would entail, but okay.
quote:
It is simply about communicating what has been observed, period. No bias, no narrative, no persuading.
This is retarded. In every issue of Nature, there is a fierce debate about niche topics which use standard rhetorical techniques to make arguments about where new ideas fit into the structure of what we already know. If you aren’t used to scientific language, you would miss these debates, but the essence of them still goes back to the basics of classical rhetoric. And even in the collection of something like the DSM-V, the debate on what is included and how it is included and according to what evidentiary standards, is filled with bias, personal rivalries, politics, jealousy, etc. Science is still contingent on human emotions, regardless of your idealized view of how it is approached. This is true of the entirety of science.

Again, this is the value of what RFKjr brings to the table
Nah, he doesn’t bring anything to the table other than his desperate desire to launder his own idiotic ideas into the world.
quote:
Question everything.
That would happen regardless of whether RFK is in charge or not. Instead of something meaningful, like the continued academic and regulatory capture of institutions by corporate industry, we get something that was settled and in the end is of much lower stakes.
quote:
The trust is in the questioning, not in the institutions
lol, it is going to be theater, nothing else.
quote:
There are people itt who are fighting against that and defending leaders who have lied repeatedly
And then what? What specifically about the structure of scientific progress and its relationship with corporate industry is RFK looking to change? Be specific for once. Give me some of his plans and/ideas. How is he going to ‘fix’ peer review?

No, you just don’t have the background and are also incurious. All of this has happened before, including anti-vaxxers targeting states to end compulsory vaccination schemes.

I mean, it is fine. I don’t think food dyes are a major part of the metabolic issues which are plaguing us currently but if it helps you feel good about him, good for you.

Not that I've ever done such a thing but, you realize that as an information search engine, an AI program is just a tool for data aggregation, right? Meaning, it just brings info to you.
The question is why you are acting like such a flaming retard over it. So are you going to start denying that there are problems with the peer review process? You might as well change your name to Sisyphus

You misunderstand. This is a civic judgement more than a scientific one.
Judging a public official's trustworthiness, honesty, and competence isn't really a scientific judgement. You keep having this issue. He isn't scientifically competent, but HHS secretaries usually aren't scientists. They're trained managers which is what they should be because they have a management job, but they will be shite managers administrating a public health service if they substitute crank judgement for real competent advice.

Let’s be real, you would not read my recommendations. Your idea of what the problem is with medicine is far removed from what mine is.

What is the symptomotology of these health problems? Give me specifics. I have thousands of patient encounters a year. Tell me what I am supposed to be looking for if you are convinced that these are causing issues. You should know that every potential issue points towards a possible mechanism of cellular injury.

He hasn’t questioned anything at this point.

No! I want someone trustworthy, competent, and earnest to address it. Do you know anyone or have ideas how this could be done yourself? (crazy asked this too).
