Love this advert and come back to it every few months. I am a retired Public Health Doctor and the science around Covid is incredibly complex and the answers to some questions change almost daily as new strains emerge and the prevalence of the illness varies.

Give me the award when you prove my simple statement to be in error. I have not disagreed with the scientific experts, only with the idea that questioning science, even by other scientists, is stupid.
