Fuck, I know multiple hospital nurses that were mask and vaccine skeptics during the massive outbreaks.

Also, unfortunately here in America, the only economically advanced society on the planet that allows for prescription drugs to be advertised on TV, there are and have been huge amounts of over prescriptions of drugs of all kinds that are massively expensive and have many side effects that are costly in many ways, when its often the case that if people simply could actually afford the time and money to do regular screenings, checkups, and even just an actually basically healthy diet with some routine light exercise, many of these drugs would never be needed at all in many cases.

I agree with you on trust the science, but when it comes to medicine, the unfortunate truth is that our healthcare system is so broken that you often cannot trust/afford it generally, opening up people to be susceptible to both officially approved and proffered solutions which are dubious (opiod crisis, sackler family) as well as absolute nonsense quackery like homeopathy, or drinking bleach, or even urine.
