Covid scepticism gaining legitimacy

 Here's a chap with the temerity to suggest that the Covid pandemic is fake. I know from my travels that there are many such chappies and chapettes, but they normally don't get write-ups at CBC news. What makes this particular chap noteworthy is his position as a chemistry professor at the University of Waterloo.

And if that's not enough succour for the pandemic deniers, note the topics of the last two Munk Debates Podcasts. Last week featured a debate about the merits of the Swedish model (no lockdown, no masks, no cratered economy). This week the discussion was around whether the scientific community has overreacted to the threat of the virus.

The fact that these questions are being debated on an establishment forum like the Munk Debates tells me that the One True God of covid group-think is running into some headwinds. 

May the non-believers thrive and prosper!
