    Medical errors and the cult of expertise in the age of Covid

    January 5, 2021

    Ever since the Covid panic began in February of this year, medical personnel such as doctors and nurses have been treated to a level of hero worship generally reserved for the government's soldiers and cops. We were told they were heroically slaving away to treat Covid victims. And although many of these nurses were apparently spending their time choreographing TikTok videos and…

After all, in the grand scheme of things, there's a boundless universe of potential knowledge, and we ourselves each grasp but a thin sliver of all that's knowable. Theoretically, the more facts and data we have to assist us, the better our decision making can…

    Those who fear disease most are most likely to prefer authoritarian regimes

    November 24, 2020

Libertarians have been vociferously denouncing covid-19 containment strategies as draconian. Evolutionary psychologists, however, argue that reactions in favor of government restrictions are the norm in environments where the public fears contamination.

    Antibiotics in cold and flu season: Potentially harmful and seldom helpful

    November 17, 2020
