I have seen the OP post a lot of dis/misinformation about the coronavirus. I would take anything he says with a grain of salt.

Outstanding advice!  Everyone should take everything from anyone 'with a grain of salt.'  I can promise that I don't have the power to insert fake studies into pub-med though.

What I mostly do is to present ideas and links to information which a lot of people have not heard of.  This is not because the information isn't out there, but it can be hard to find because there is a mainstream narrative which is heavily promoted and information that doesn't conform to the mainstream narrative is quashed.  People who don't go out side of a particular box [which is most people] simply have no access to it.  And people are conditioned from pre-school through grad school to NOT auto-generate new ideas for themselves.

Sharp eyed viewers might note that a lot of things which were fringe conspiracy theories in the not to distant past have been allowed into mainstream-land eventually.  The 'cost' of keeping them out indefinitely outweighs the 'benefit' of keeping them hidden.  Anyway, being able to recognize them early can make a person healthy, wealthy, and wise.  I'm always glad to see that happen, and especially in cases where my efforts clearly had something to do with it.
