Will You 'Follow The Science' Next Time?
In this episode, Anne Corbin explores the mind-body-spirit connection, reflects on global health threats including COVID-19, and critically examines "scientism" in pandemic responses. She gives an overview of vaccine development, shares personal vaccine experiences, and discusses societal "isms". The episode concludes with an analysis of the scientific method's application during the pandemic.
Key Points
- Lockdown, originally, was only meant to last two weeks because they assumed that the population would not accept a longer imprisonment.
- Initial fatality figures were high but these were mostly driven upwards by the Government’s decision to move all elderly patients back into nursing homes from hospitals where they spread Covid like wildfire and died from pre-existing conditions.
- The figures were further driven up by anybody testing positive for covid who died for any reason in the next month was counted as a covid fatality. Fear mongering continued with ridiculous predictions of rate of spread and casualty figures.
- There was no time for the vaccine to be properly tested. Developers claimed that the base vaccine had already been developed and only needed to be specified to the covid-19 virus so there was no risk.
Scientism is a new, derogatory term for the blind, unquestioning following of scientific conclusions. Science is the observance of a phenomenon, the collection of data and the creation of a hypothesis or theory by inductive reasoning and testing of that hypothesis by rigorous experimentation and demonstration to prove the conclusion. Anne looks back at the Covid crisis and asks, bearing in mind the fourth step of the scientific method was blatantly ignored during the vaccine production stage, how will we ever trust the scientific community ever again?
BEST MOMENTS ‘Ease is a greater threat to progress than hardship is. It’s a threat to safety as well, for people who don’t see danger coming are the ones who don’t change their behavior.’ ‘Science and scientists used to command respect. Will they ever regain it?’ ‘Vaccination was held up to be the Holy Grail, the only possible answer that could rescue everyone from this horrible situation.’ ‘The man reminded me of a fast talking car salesman and I just let him talk. But then the Doctor confirmed everything he said and went on to sing the praises of the stuffed shirts that we were all so familiar with from the daily government covid briefings.’ ‘And now ‘follow the science’ as a phrase has forever been discredited because we were told to follow untested theories, hypotheses and ideas.’ VALUABLE RESOURCES Annes YouTube Channel. https://youtube.com/channel/UC2tRR-E-SHlne2pAgQvrd2A To access the Mind Body Spirit Mentor Book go to: The Mind-Body-Spirit Mentor (UK) The Mind-Body-Spirit Mentor (US) Schedule a call: Www.calendly.com/mbsconnect CONTACT METHOD Email [email protected] LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-corbin/ ABOUT THE HOST Anne originally trained as a math and science teacher but then chose to qualify as an accountant and worked in business for 12 years. Having recognised that there was more to life than a successful career – specifically working long hours to make money for other people at the expense of her own health – she quit the rat race and returned to her first love: teaching, but on a part-time basis. Fascinated by psychology, philosophy and theology, she is now a successful trainer, speaker and author, who enjoys sharing her passion, purpose and knowledge with a growing audience.
