Taking every study at surface value is a good way of getting sucked into a bunch of bullshit. Which I suppose is accurate for some... |

Dismissing a study before you read it is just ignorant.

Pete insisting things are true unless proven false.
He’s so backwards. |

So, to say the first study is bullshit isn't closed minded or dismissive in the sense of "ermergerd, this totally goes against what I believe and it's not factual at all!!!" or "this doesn't matter at all in my black and white world!!"... because that's not the point of science or how science works. Saying something that's very early in the process is bullshit is to say.... well, it's very early in the process, so take the conclusions with a grain of salt. More data will be gathered and the conclusions will be more meaningful with larger sample sizes, different sets of eyes, etc. tl;dr: If you test 10 people in your town for Covid and 8 are positive, you aren't going to completely dismiss it and say it's 100% useless (after all, Covid is clearly in your town), but you're also not going to freak out that 80% of a sample size of 10 tested positive. |

The WWE now has multiple positive tests......so far it appears their action is going to be to act like it doesn't exist.
