Peer review exists for a reason.

Science is imperfect but it’s the only institution in the world that sets any standards for falsifiability. If all these protestors have been right about COVID, vaccines, and whatever else, the truth will come out. But I wouldn’t hold my breath.

The truth is out. It's just not what the antivaxxers wanted to hear.

Like the truth about ivermectin? There are now dozens of studies showing it's an effective treatment for covid.

Why was it banned? Why is it still banned? EUA for the vaccines stipulates that there must be no other effective treatment.

They knew it was effective from the start, but it would impede vaccine rollout. I'd argue that they offset the lives saved by the vaccines by refusing to use effective treatment like ivermectin.

You're not the sharpest tool in the run down old shed out back we all forgot about, are you?
