When medical messaging is co-opted for political purposes, go figure that people now suspect it. Nor is this the first time it's happened. Once trust has been broken it's not easily repaired and takes a long time.

I can't fathom how much damage has been done to the overall trust that people had of the sciences in general by the horrifically botched messaging during the pandemic.
