I have seen so much errors in science papers, that I regard most science papers as mostly false. In the area of health and medicine there is an additional factor of money that drives many scientists towards corruption.

The extremely bad science that tries to downplay HCQ is a good example of such corruption. Even someone with no education at all, can tell what is wrong, after overdosing people or using data from non-existing hospitals. And both were used for major political decisions!

Even in hard sciences, like physics, I can point out many errors already. But a lot of the errors are kept, because they explained some of the observations. It is the same logic as a standing clock id correct, because it tells the right time twice a day.

Appeal to authority is like "Experts in Astrology claim that Astrology works and is useful for decisions in your life".
If you disagree with that, you are not an Expert who studied 10 years in Astrology!
