So @GidMK reason for telling you this bit of history is bc your article says "Overall, the guidelines are based on literally hundreds of individual pieces of scientific research, representing the perspectives of millions of people"....well, the "evidence" came after-the-fact.
I think developing guidelines is a good (an important) step in advocating for social interventions. Hard to convince politicians to legislate when you don't have solid recommendations

No one is disputing a good policy brief is more likely to get traction. What those options are, and really critiquing what is happening and why is what is now needed. Oh, and the removal of industry from policy cycle, and from health professionals
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Saying that something is politically expedient is different from saying “disagreement is a person ‘ignoring science’”.

True fact. Fortunately the guidelines are both politically expedient and based on robust scientific evidence
