After my mind came up with it - I had to follow through. In all seriousness, I thought I'd never see scientific honesty around the uncertainty, it's a good day for (real) science.

I totally remember Dr’s in white coats telling us all about fake medicine.

It’s paywalled so hard, I can’t even see what it’s about! Do you remember or do you have access to know what the story was?

A group of people calling themselves “America’s Frontline Doctors” and wearing white medical coats spoke against the backdrop of the Supreme Court in Washington, sharing misleading claims about the virus, including that hydroxychloroquine was an effective coronavirus treatment and that masks did not slow the spread of the virus.

I have difficulty believing anything coming from this current Administration.

Thank you for providing contacts. I’ll check it out using the date and that description. After the many, many shortcomings that was the pandemic response, trust in public health is at an all-time low. The more I learn though, the trust we afforded public health agencies for decades seems to have been grossly misplaced. I hope that increasing transparency over time will remedy that. It’s gonna take a lot.
