Yeah, normally I'd say that's a fair point.
But pretty much every article and news story on the pandemic has this kind of information in it. You really have to go out of your way to miss it - and it's pretty clear that some people here are actively tracking down articles and sources to validate their opinions about the flu or car deaths being worse than coronavirus.
I'm not worried about people just voicing an opinion about things they're not expert in, I'm worried about people actively ignoring authoritative information they disagree with and hunting down obscure sources that validate their factually incorrect views. In a profession like ours, where data and authoritative information is so important, that worries me.
