But Ewan Birney or Oliver Johnson aren't random no bodies spreading anti mask, anti Vax nonsense, just academics giving middle of the road interpretations of the data
Not saying those posters are good or bad, but they are just people on Twitter, which can be great for up to date information, but can also be full of crap, and posting links to Twitter but not wanting to click a guardian link just seems funny.

Yeh but isn't it just as lazy to dismiss a link to Twitter without taking the 30 seconds to review someone's bio and see if they might be someone relevant and worth reading?
If it turns out to be a link to complete conspiracy junk then you can make an informed decision to just ignore anything the user posts going forwards.
If it turns out to be credible analysis or commentary but not aligned to the forums groupthink then maybe it's worth reading?I guess none of this is really aimed at you but I have found this thread tiring some times as any difference of opinion seems to get shut down quickly and a lot of the conversation is around what policy should be and there is scope for different points of view in that as opposed to the science.

As an avid Graun reader I find it odd not to read one of thier articles but each to thier own, there are publications I dismiss which probably results in me sometimes me missing out of good analysis from a viewpoint I don't normally identify with
