Trying to get espola to actually stake out a position is as fruitless as the quest for the holy grail is.

“An exacerbation of a chronic illness is not a Covid hospitalization. If a person with diabetes goes into diabetic ketoacidosis because of a viral infection, you treat the diabetic complication. Hospitals frequently see these complications in people with chronic conditions with influenza, pneumonia, and other acute illnesses. This phenomenon is not unique to Covid. However, it seems everyone has forgotten.”

“‘We had absolutely no idea what we were going into,’ Catalano added. ‘You had all these fancy signs on the highway [saying], ‘Mask up, mask up’, ‘Save lives, mask up.’ Turn the signs on and say, ‘Turn around,’ you know, ‘50-mile backup,’ something.’”
to which he quickly acknowledged his mistake and apologized for
Which is kinda rare , I don’t see a lot of self reflecting and apologies being done from the mainstream outlets that you get your information from
I think in our dialectic we’ve already established “credentialism is overrated”. We have a buy in not only from team reality (that has been arguing this for a while) but now from some key members of team panic. Which means experience is more important than ever!
I would argue that while dad4 and I certainly have the chops to sit on an expert advisory committee, when it comes to stuff like this, only one poster (he of the many names) is more qualified to serve as poo bah of the ads than Espola.

There is zero accountability and apologies in main stream media. I've listened to a few of the Rogan podcasts where he has legit experts on. He goes out of his way to fact check. There is reason that people seem to trust the Rogans of the world (many other podcasts that buck the mainstream media these days) over the bought and paid for talking heads on TV.

Excellent take Hound. That's why the callousness of Espola, Dad, The Husler and EOTL is much worse then just hard hearts. These trolls each have an assign demon working with them as well, moo! They have NEVER admitted when they or their side was wrong because they hate first and then lie and cheat to win. They have never said sorry to anyone or asked for forgiveness because they have no empathy. Cold Cold Hearts Hard Done By Them!!! They have no empathy towards others. 0 ZERO empathy. No chemicals in their brain to feel for others. They come from a certain bloodline as well and these types are just what they are, haters and use kids as pawns. I will be as kind as I can be. Psychopaths and Sociopaths have zero care or thought for others. It's not their fault, they were born this way.

The news has always has a liberal slant to it.
Over the past decade or so, it has gone from a slant to outright advocacy.
This meme highlights that fact.

That sentence only makes sense if you are using the royal “we”. You may be dismissive of the people who have degrees and work experience in epidemiology. I am not.
I am dismissive of people with degrees outside epidemiology, who then tout their humanities or surgery credential while pretending to understand viral population growth. That is like me saying you should buy my poetry book because I have a degree in mathematics.
CIF cheer championships have been pushed to February. 30% of the schools had to withdraw due to COVID protocols.
Back to school night was interesting at my kids school. My guess is a 1/3 of the parents were demanding we shut down and go remote. 1/3 complaining about the new LA restrictions saying the school needs to say enough is enough. Very vocal. Lots of yelling. If it had been in person that would have been interesting.

Errr.....some of the best poets had no formal education. My mother is a published poet back in the old country with no college, only a nursing, degree. My 13 year old just had one picked up in a national mag despite not even having hit high school For all I know you'd be great at poetry. Despite your degree in mathematics, for example, you are one of the most worldclass preachers I've ever seen (J/K...it was too good to let pass
)But that's fundamentally were we disagree. I take experience wherever I find it...in my case, for example, is my training in logic (which BTW is 1/2 of the LSAT). I'm also willing to embrace experts with degrees and experience that go against the establishment, while you dismiss them as quacks. But in the end, paraphrasing your own words, credentialism while one factor, can be overrated.
p.s. if you are dismissive of people with degrees outside epidemiology, you must have hated the troika of Fauci, Redfield and Birx and wondered why they were running things. Atlas himself wondered about it give his health policy credential

I see UK as past the inflection point. Still growing, but more slowly now. On course to peak at roughly 5x previous case peak. (roughly 300K cases per day.)
Parts of the East Coast are also getting close to max. Keep an eye on DC, NY, NJ the next 4-7 days. I expect all three to bend concave down.

TV scientists are like TV lawyers-that is where and to whom the credentials seem to matter most. For the people cranking out the data that others pontificate about on the TV the saying is "you are only as good as your next paper". In some ways, if we are arguing about media experts, that means everything is going fine.
