The misinformation in response to every single tweet in this thread is honestly terrifying. In a polarised political environment with difficult decisions that have real impacts it& #39;s all to easy for it to convince people. Listen to scientists not people shouting science. 1/? https://twitter.com/NicolaSturgeon/status/1301059332675637248">https://twitter.com/NicolaStu...

The person I& #39;ve found most informative in all of this is @trishgreenhalgh, Professor of Primary Care at Oxford. Really good, useful information put across well in a way you and everyone you know can understand. 2/? https://twitter.com/trishgreenhalgh/status/1300086990709362693?s=19">https://twitter.com/trishgree...

Will add more people to this thread over the next few days as I think of them but please listen to scientists and not to people with no expertise, selectively translating sections of academic papers to the real world. Even *if* it& #39;s being done in good faith, it may be untrue. 3/?
