Weaponized Uncertainty in Science and in Public Health Puts People in Harm's Way

> What is disconcerting is that this proposed action from the US drug regulator does not accurately represent the spectrum of research findings, nor the consensus among researchers. That consensus must be expressed with nuance, because of the uncertainty that always exists in scientific research. By making definitive statements such as “Don’t take Tylenol” and “Fight like hell not to take it”, Trump risks weaponizing that uncertainty to the detriment of public health.

It funny how even something like this is a political statement. For example, if someone questions some left-aligned dogma and says “uncertainty that always exists in scientific research”, it’s not acceptable, but when it’s some right-aligned thing, then please, repeat that statement as many times as possible.
