The scarriest thing about the last two years was to see just how scientifically uneducated even smatr and "educated" people are.

Look at these high numbers... High numbers mean bad.

People on lockdown cannot get tested. Look, numbers are falling.
Tests are subsidised: Oh noooo. Numbers are getting high.

It truly seems that even the most educated people do not understand the "Bullshit in bullshit out" principle of research.

@LukeAlmighty level of education does not directly correlate with intelligence
@LukeAlmighty

exactly

> government decides only sick people can get tested

"oh look the numbers went down"

> tests go from free to unaffordably expensive

"oh look they went down again"

> deaths count being backlogged

"oh look the death rate is down"
@jeffcliff @LukeAlmighty afaik literally no government did a proper randomized sample with the same test procedure over a longer time, which would have been the only way to actually measure the prevalence of the virus in the population. Numbers are not comparable between different countries because of different testing rules and even differences of tests being used, so they mean next to nothing.
@LukeAlmighty some understand but can’t see past their political bias. So they torture the numbers until the other side isn’t right anymore.
@LukeAlmighty Accreditation and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
