@globeandmail Because our public health leaders are completely out of their depth, and care more about covering up their own incompetence than doing their jobs.
Because an MD is not a PhD, and letting cosplay scientists exclude real ones is not an effective way to handle a science problem.

@globeandmail Because medical politics is a toxic, authoritarian tar pit that selects for the worst members of the profession, and gives them control over their betters.
Because a "Thin White Line" mentality means outside criticism of pseudoscientific medical guidance is ignored.

@globeandmail Because journalists haven't put enough thought into who they platform, and just accept silly claims by clinicians with little or no relevant advanced training that they understand everything that touches human health better than actual experts.

@globeandmail Because journalists haven't put enough critical thought into the poor quality"scientific" studies they hype, and even worse, ignore efforts to educate them about even the most obvious fatal flaws in the work.

@globeandmail Because organizations like the @globeandmail have taken no interest in the immense conflicts of interest of public health and infection control leaders, who committed the most serious medical error in human history and ended "an enormous number of lives".

@globeandmail Because editors won't support investigations into the abysmal quality of research that passes for "the best available evidence" in the medical (as opposed to scientific) literature.

@globeandmail Because even when students at major Canadian medical schools are taught dangerous, easily verified falsehoods as facts, endangering them and the patients under their care to protect the egos of influential senior practitioners, it gets zero coverage.

@globeandmail Because papers like @globeandmail have completely ignored the inability of our public health and infection control leaders to see even the most screamingly obvious disasters coming (note the date here vs "open for the summer").

@globeandmail Because the insights of the world's top bioaerosol experts were discounted in favour of the uninformed opinions of influential clinicians - who don't even face difficult questions from the media, let alone accountability for the resulting carnage.

@globeandmail Because major news outlets have slashed and burned in-house expertise to the point that magical thinking that claims one type of evidence can just erase all others goes unchallenged - no matter how poorly the research is done.

@globeandmail Because the self-licking ice cream cone that is "Evidence Based Medicine" has been allowed to declare that science somehow works differently in medicine - not coincidentally more effective at concentrating power than producing results. 
@globeandmail Because news organizations repeat whatever they are told by public health leaders, without questioning how the data is manipulated - or whether the people who let COVID get out of control can be trusted to report the harms resulting from their own choices.
