I understand your point of view, but unless you have a time machine and have visited the future, your submissions are just as up in the air as the ones you oppose.
That's what they call a 'false equivalency'. A biased one-sided article with no scientific rigor behind it is not the equivalent of a well-researched position. You don't need a time machine to understand science (although you probably do to make one) or to draw predictions from well-conducted scientific research.
I'm genuinely interested in this stuff and happy to look at new ideas or concerns. So when you post something, I have a look on PubMed to check for peer review, then when its not on there I hop over to Beall's list to check if its a predatory publisher, and then mediabiasfactcheck.com to get an idea for the source that is publishing.
Biased Wording/Headlines- Does the source use loaded words to convey emotion to sway the reader. Do headlines match the story? Factual/Sourcing- Does the source report factually and back up claims with well-sourced evidence. Story Choices: Does the source report news from both sides, or do they only publish one side.
Each to their own. I love that you're passionate about your beliefs, even if you're not passionate enough to test them.
Keen to see the "data from the government". I've had a look on the TGA site and can't find anything. Agree on Clyde.
I've never stated that I definitely believe that these new, novel therapies (insofar as they have been developed for use against Sars-Cov-2) will cause serious long term negative health effects, disease etc
My concern is that no-one knows for sure not even the people who made it.
For proper confidence to be shown in the long term, a long enough term is going to have to pass and results from that quantified.
I post finding I see for consideration of what could be, not as gospel and from what I've seen, none of it has truly been discredited, and can't be. Yet.
I understand that there are a lot of people pushing a certain point of view, emotionally and with twisted data and there have been many sources that I've not posted because of this.
I'm not as conspiracy minded as some people on here would make me seem to be, those that would instantly dismiss without consideration.
I appreciate that you actually look into the ideas and have taken the time to write a balanced reply.
