So everyone is a COVID expert now huh? Right. Where is the epistemic humility?

<p>Just type &lsquo;Covid&rsquo; in the search bar and see what shows up for this year, in particular August and September.</p> <p>There are several writers commenting on the return of the pandemic. These include artists, actors, models, writers and self-identified cat-ladies.</p> <p>Their claim is of course about the dangers of Covid that hadn&rsquo;t really gone away, and that we therefore need to consider the same restrictions we did since 2020: masking, distancing, etc.</p> <p>Some of these claims are made at the expense of a ridiculed someone rather than critically evaluated data; in one piece, it&rsquo;s the mother of the author who is a lost QANON conspiracy theorist, in another article it&rsquo;s &lsquo;stupid Trump supporters&rsquo;. Yes, very rigorous and intelligent. And brave &mdash; not predictable at all.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@meroniqa/so-everyone-is-a-covid-expert-now-huh-right-where-is-the-epistemic-humility-675db253bea9"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
