but it's just one academic having their opinion on a radio show.
There are thousands of disagreements that happen all the time in science, often between people just as credentialed as Osterholm. And the one bit of scientific consensus about Covid 19 is that we need to study it more, as there are many factors about it that we have yet to establish. So anybody who speaks with certainty about prevention, for example, is doing so without substantial firm data about this new virus, and hence it can only speculative. There won't be any scientifically rigorous comparative studies of different methods because it's new and we're in the middle of a crisis, and that sort of epidemiological study is quite tricky to pull apart confounding factors, so you need time and well-documented large cohorts and controls
I don't know why you've decided this one individual is the gospel, enough to shout in capslock at other people, but it shows quite a bit of naivety and credulousness on your part.
