I understand your position. However as someone who has an interest in but admittedly a hard time understanding everything that's being discussed. It would be helpful to see/hear a back and forth discussion about the topic.

I wish more individuals in the scientific community would be open to debating those they don't agree with specifically when it comes to Covid19.

Science isn’t settled in debate. It’s about the evidence and only the evidence.

Again I understand But the scientific community is failing to get that across to the general public. Many factors involved with that obviously. Its hard to communicate just on Twitter, but I wish there would be a more aggressive approach on addressing those misrepresenting topics

So in an age with vast amounts of information. How do we move through the nonsense and find evidence based information? It's past becoming a problem. And for the people most likely to believe things that lack evidence, a refusal to debate is often seen as being afraid.

Certainly that's how the cranks go out of their way to portray it because it suits their propaganda, when in fact it is a recognition that debate with a crank is nearly always pointless.
