    To elaborate. Sure, listen to the experts. But as I said above there are a million of them in the US. Obviously they will have varying degrees of expertise in different areas, but there are a lot of people with medical qualifications who you could listen to. In a population of a million people it's impossible there will be unanimity. And some of them will probably have quite extreme views which aren't accepted by the majority. And with the internet they can spread those views to a lot of people.

    This is the problem I was highlighting earlier. Everyone can find a source which backs up their own particular worldview and reinforces their own biases these days.
    When you cross the line from healthy scepticism of the mainstream to "the mainstream view is always wrong" then you're going to seek out those extreme/fringe views.

    So yeah, this guy is an expert. Almost all the other experts disagree with him. Why do you think he is he right and they are wrong? Is it simply because it fits your agenda?

    Why is he and others like him given no time on the MSM?

    I'm as much an expert in this as Bill Gates but who do you see on the TV?

    In other news, Kyrie Irving is back in contention for the Brooklyn Nets.

    After being suspended, banished and vilified for not getting the vax, he's being brought back because too many vaxxed players have covid. You can't make this shit up.

    He'll only be available for away games mind, because of the ludicrous NY mandate.

    If this doesn't highlight the ridiculousness I don't know what will.

    How much air time should they give to every single fringe view?

    What about just a healthy debate where you hear both sides. It's not as fringe as the MSM would have you believe.

    But okay fine he won't be on CNN or BBC but why are Youtube censoring him and banning such videos?

    What is the point? That vaxxed players are testing positive?
    How are you not understanding this? The vaccine isn’t magic. It doesn’t put a force field around you and stop you getting infected. It just reduces the likelihood of getting seriously ill.
