Without real knowledge we can’t recognize our limits. We’re confident, though, because an ignorant mind isn’t blank. It’s cluttered with an illusion of knowledge, like intuitions, experiences, & random facts.
We also can’t appreciate expertise because we already “know.” 2/3

Patient asked for a medical exemption for the #CovidVaccine. I told him I couldn't write one because he doesn't have any medical conditions that would prevent him from taking it. He then asked if I could write him a religious exemption. 😮💨

Part of #vaccinehesitancy is rooted in enduring belief in #ConspiracyTheories.
1/3 of the US believes vaccine harms are deliberately hidden from the public.
#COVID19 is beatable, but the stubborn conviction of false belief is a tougher challenge.

Still hiring for culture fit? “While the definition of culture fit varies from company to company, likability is a common denominator, and is often the dominant factor when determining if someone fits into the #companyculture. And that is a problem.” forbes.com/sites/forbescoach… #HR

#ScienceForLife: Day 13: Anecdotes aren’t good evidence
1 We can misperceive our experiences.
2 Anecdotes aren’t controlled.
3 They’re often not typical.
4 People can lie.
Our brains prefer stories over statistics. But be skeptical!

Outstanding post, as always.
I’ll kindly add:
5) Anecdotes are often hijacked in “alternative/integrative medicine” spaces to promote pseudoscience.
My new post in @PsychToday: psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/…
‘The Dullest Tool in the Belt of a Pseudoscientific Agenda’
Pseudoscientific proponents hijack and elevate the anecdote as a tool to the detriment of patients and at the neglect of the scientific evidence base.

I would have chosen a different headline--how about:
"More than 99 percent of the system’s roughly 35,000 employees have followed the mandatory vaccination program."
Vaccine requirements work. They are routine in healthcare settings for other preventable diseases.
N.C. hospital system fires about 175 workers in one of the largest-ever mass terminations due to a vaccine mandate wapo.st/39JJ9vH

These guys are cutting-edge researchers in the health misinformation space.
See, for example, their work in @Nature: nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
A tremendous opportunity.

This thread right here is THE BEST EXAMPLE of doing your own research on the web. You don’t stop at the first link that confirms your viewpoint, you dig deeper, you correlate and you fact check. Why?! Because the simple answer is usually wrong. #lifeiscomplicated
This #meme shows an 'experiment' on #GMO 🌽.
It went #viral multiple times in the last decade.
Do we see a scientific study by 'students in England'❓
I found who took these pictures. How? 👇👇👇 1/..

#ScienceForLife: Day 10: Is perception reality?
If our goal is to better understand the true nature of reality, we must recognize that our perceptions are incomplete, flawed, constructed, & biased… and be open to learning from others.
