It’s Time for the Scientific Community to Admit We Were Wrong About COVID and It Cost Lives

(Worthy Insights) – As a medical student and researcher, I staunchly supported the efforts of the public health authorities when it came to COVID-19. I believed that the authorities responded to the largest public health crisis of our lives with compassion, diligence, and scientific expertise. I was with them when they called for lockdowns, vaccines, and boosters.

I was wrong. We in the scientific community were wrong. And it cost lives.

I can see now that the scientific community from the CDC to the WHO to the FDA and their representatives, repeatedly overstated the evidence and misled the public about its own views and policies, including on natural vs. artificial immunity, school closures and disease transmission, aerosol spread, mask mandates, and vaccine effectiveness and safety, especially among the young. All of these were scientific mistakes at the time, not in hindsight. Amazingly, some of these obfuscations continue to the present day. [ Source: NewsWeek (Read More…) ]

  1. It took this guy until January of this year to realize this? MANY thousands, perhaps many millions, of us knew much was false about the covid narrative within a few months of the outbreak, and pretty much all of it within the first year. Information was available; you just had to actually look for it rather than relying on the talking heads on TV. This guy is a PhD candidate? Pretty scary.

  2. Wow! I can’t believe Newsweek, one of the many leftist “news” sources, printed this! The downside is that Newsweek’s circulation is probably down to less than a couple hundred thousand, but it’s a start.
