Doctors are not scientists and the fact that they are all not wearing N95s at work proves it.
The irony.
Designed and proven using entirely mechanistic method and observational data, with a healthy side order of biochemistry.
And fielded for decades with huge successes, without a single randomized trial as proof.
& today, groups of MDs work tirelessly to prove N95 don’t work vs viruses.

On this day in 1966, Cluny Macpherson died.
Born in St. John's in 1879, he invented the gas mask during the First World War. His design was adopted by the British Army. He later became the president of the St. John's Clinical Society and the Newfoundland Medical Association.

Someone should ask the mayor how much he’s getting in donations from Waymo now that they are illegally putting cars on the ground in the city. Also, the city council should move to band autonomous vehicles within the city immediately.

Someone on the Minneapolis subreddit caught Waymos being delivered. We need the City Council need to ban the use of driverless cars. The technology isn't there. Our city cannot be a testing ground for 1.5 ton autonomous projectiles.

It frightens me how many chronic illness people follow the chiropractor Eric Berg as a reliable source of information.
I know a lot of healthy people do too, but for vulnerable people, his advice has an extra layer of danger.
His advice has been debunked many times over, yet people still trust him.
