Did you hear about that recent study that (if my understanding is correct) purported to say that vaccine hesitancy increases one's chances of being in a car accident?

It's hilarious.

I couldn't even bring myself to write about that one! Nothing to do with younger people being unvaccinated and old people hiding away at home. Maybe not claiming a pension increased the chance of being in an accident as well!

Yes, Dr. Campbell's first analysis video on this (I think he did 2 analysis videos), really showed some of the almost laughable shortcomings of this study.

I wish I had the time to write an article on this study, because I think it would be informative and educational: it would really show that not all studies are really methodologically sound. (Not that I'm an expert in conducting studies, but even a layperson like me, with Dr. Campbell's help, can see the holes in that paper.)

Friend, being an intellectually curious layperson in this time appears to be a position of strength ... it seems we can see what is right before us when the “experts” cannot?

Yes, true. I find it just so...surreal that so-called "educated" people and those saying "follow the science" can't see what's in front of them.

It's been one of the most (maybe the most) revealing times of my life.

It originated in Canada. Just another Trudeau misogynistic scientific study.
