@larsmb To be fair, isn’t that the job of something like #WHO?

A health organization really shouldn’t look at an individual, but at a societal, level. You as an individual then have to make your own choices, but from a policy standpoint there has to be some kind of cost effectiveness bias and taking averages into account.

No policy can ever be perfect, and striving for perfection is pointless and actively detrimental. So you should always look for “this is the best we can reasonably do in the big picture”, and ask yourself whether that shouldn’t take cost and effort into account?

@larsmb I may be biased by where I am, but it does seem like the problem has never primarily been the resources or public policy or access, but individuals who “did their own research”.

I think it was harder finding ivermectin than vaccines at times.

So I’d worry more about plain old stupidity than the #WHO guidelines.
