This only applies if you redefine science to be "cargo cult" science and "expert opinion", where the socialist overlords are the experts.
Genuine science is something entirely different that has been horribly distorted over the last several decades. The great Dr. Richard Feynman warned us all about this during his Caltech commencement address in 1974. You should look it up on the internet and read it someday if you have time.
Suffice it to say, not a single "expert" during this whole Covid-19 debacle is actually doing or following any real science. Richard Feynman had the most elegant description of science by anyone I have ever heard:
"Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts."
Always keep an open mind. Always keep searching. Always keep looking for ways to falsify your hypothesis. If you are unwilling to actively seek out data and study new ideas that disprove your assumptions, you are not practicing science.
This is the foundational principle of the scientific method. Anyone who sells science as truth is not only lying, they are telling you the exact opposite of what science intends to be.
We use science to create models that account for some subset of observations. It is essential to always keep in mind these are models. they are not truth. When we make an observation that the model did not predict, we use science to create better models. That is all science is; the process of creating iteratively better models that predict the outcome of future observations within some prespecified regime.
Some of our models are really good at that and we falsely create dogma from repeated good predictions. This dogma is not a part of science, but a part of the humans need to create dogma. However, this dogma is very often mistakenly conflated with science, and this is where the problems with science stem.
If a person spews dogma as science, they are not speaking from science, but from religion. All statements of "Follow the science" are correctly translated to "Follow my religion."
