And so, you know, relative to other sciences out there.
And so a study can come out and it can say something completely different than what the consensus says.
But that's a single study.
And so if you just cherry pick that study, right, which people, that's a big thing, cherry picking studies.
You take that one study and you say.
If it confirms your bias.
Yes, then you're like, that study says this, but what do the 72 other studies say that have also looked at this question and are kind of going in this direction?
That's an outlier study, right?
So we have to look at everything together and that's what consensus does.
So when you look at some of these medical organizations or these scientific organizations, that's what they're looking at.
They're looking at the thousand studies that have been published in this area
not just one.
And then one new study may be published and it may be very interesting and it may lead us down another path, but that one study is not going to refute consensus unless we build upon that and we see more and more studies come out.
Yeah, I don't think that people respond well to your wrong, traditionally.
Yeah, I think we're living in a really tough time right now when we're seeing medical organizations combat what the CDC is saying, which never happens.
I think people need to really understand how unprecedented that is.
And so what I would recommend is kind of look at global scientific consensus.
So look at kind of these global organizations.
Look at these medical organizations like the AAP, which is the American Academy of Pediatrics.
