    Health Nerd Retweeted Senator Rand Paul

    This is the problem with science becoming politicized - it is not "the left" that is concerned about naturally acquired immunity, it is the experts (because becoming naturally immune requires you to GET SICK)https://twitter.com/RandPaul/status/1328789052565430272 …

    Why does the left accept immune theory when it comes to vaccines, but not when discussing naturally acquired immunity? https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/13/health/coronavirus-reinfection.html …

        Alternatively: it's the problem with ignorance and superstition becoming politicised.

        It doesn’t take much for journalist to check this stuff. Some do and some make themselves look silly.

        Is the aim to prevent everyone getting sick, even those at very low risk of hospitalisation or death? And at what cost? Many just cannot optimise for Covid risk only. Jobless, losing their business they struggle to understand why it’s come to this when their risk is so small.

        Plus you don't really have to be an expert to see the problem with that 🤔

        Nothing here that maps to the left, except that DJT voters are less likely to believe the evidence.

        There is no science like there are no judges. Everything had to be looked at through the lense of some private club. The data will be whatever supports your clubs view. Get rid of the clubs.
