Omicron = endemic COVID?

[Praktica]

Campbell seems to trade on the "Dr". He has a PhD, in nurse education. I would rather take notice of Michael Baker, and our local experts.

PhD = Doctorate = Doctor, and with around half a century of workplace experience in medical environments worldwide I'm convinced that Dr John has more than enough wisdom to evaluate the research data he bases his presentations on.

There is no shortage of people who are working in professional positions other than that which their university qualifications denote them as being 'expert' in. In my experience a university degree is as much proof in an individual's ability to understand and process scientific data as a relegation into a rigid field of work focus.

Also many of the COVID 'experts' that continually front our media broadcasts are aligned to tertiary institutions so are beholden to towing the accepted line in terms of public health measures. Dr John is independent as a retired professional and the fact that his YouTube videos remain online two years into this pandemic would be proof that the powers that be haven't had grounds to contest the interpretation of facts that he presents. He is a breath of fresh air in the current climate of redacted info and political double speak regarding COVID.

Why would an official organisation contest the views produced by an amateur commentator - amateur because Campbell has no recognised expertise in epidemiology or public health? All contesting these views does, is validate what could be a load of dingoes kidneys. Populism, especially in science, does not appeal to me.
