… though it won't please everyone: Coronavirus Update XVII: End The Farce Now – William M. Briggs. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
We shall see, I suspect sooner rather than later. But I share Richard Feynman's view: "Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts."
It makes you wonder why Feynman bothered with studying at MIT and Princeton, then, or teaching at Cornell and Caltech.
ReplyDeleteWhat Briggs refers to as "media numbers" are actually those compiled by researchers at Johns Hopkins. His decision to disguise that fact is a clear indication that he is nothing more than an ideological hack. Personally, I'll take JHU over the CDC every time.
ReplyDeleteAlso, having met Feynman briefly, I can guarantee that he had greater respect for the ignorance of scientific experts than for the ignorance of know-it-all posers.
