Have been thinking a lot about the & #39;Science& #39; recently, and the decisions it has influenced. (Thread)

3rd March
The Science tells us to keep shaking hands:

& #39;I was at a hospital where there were a few coronavirus patients and I shook hands with everybody& #39; says Boris Johnson.
18th March
The Science has changed!

After a careful examination of the science, UK gov u-turns & announces school closures https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51952314">https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-5...
Anyway - the point is, the & #39;science& #39; isn& #39;t some omniscient deity & No.10s weird re-appropriation of it for all policy decisions is another method of evading culpability

If you can blame the & #39;science& #39;, and none of us know what that & #39;science& #39; is, we can& #39;t blame them.
