Bahaha... No, @redbook is as qualified to do so as the next average Joe.

If you meant 'anger', it's not meant to be so... Misinformation spreading, which is still attempting to happen in spades in this thread, is very frustrating. There is absolutely tons to be learned in relation to this virus and medicine that can deal with it, it's an ongoing science experiment. But laymen seeking their own treatments on what medicines they'd like to take or not and pushing the nonsense end of it online as if their opinion matters in the world of medicine, is mostly unhelpful, and leads people down the roads of consuming horse dewormer, bleach, or hydroxychloroquine.

i could explain about what scientific method is, what makes a piece of research valid, how to judge the meaning and validity of a result. so you can filter out all the contradictory science and get to the truth. but doesn't sound like you'd be interested.

I'm taking about understanding a subject matter, not getting personal medical advice.

but you seem to be conscientiously anti science, or at least against certain types of science/research. this is really unusual, if it's true. what is the thinking there? what kind of background leads you to this ideological place?
