I know what she claims to be. But she has admitted to the Daily Beast (in an interview) that she's not actually certified to be in the field that she's in. She works in the field, but any implication that she's considered an expert in the field BY THE FIELD ITSELF is nonsense. That's literally the point of being certified, so that you can legitimately claim expertise as verified by other experts.
Which, I know, probably doesn't make much of an impact with you, because you tend to believe that the entire field of science convalesces against the Truth.
But at the end of the day, she's claiming to be an expert because she thinks she is one, not because anyone qualified does.
Sure, she's been called to testify on the subject matter, but that's not surprising if the people calling for her are desperately looking for an expert to justify their views, and she's the only one who has a fake enough ID to get through the door.
The affidavits she's provided have been removed from the resources of the anti-vax and anti-mask groups she's testified for. She has misrepresented studies in ways that even she couldn't reconcile when asked about (specifically with regards to N95 masks).
I can disagree with her, but that doesn't mean anything as long as you believe she's an expert. And at BEST, her claims to expertise are contested by everyone else in the same field. She does not have the support of other experts in her claim to be an expert.
Which isn't uncommon for the anti-vax, anti-mask side of the aisle. You have a speckled array of self-claimed experts who are elevated to celebrity status for being willing to stand against The Narrative, but almost every single one of them, upon investigation, is still standing far outside of the area that we would typically reserve for experts on the subject they're talking about.
And again, I know that from your perspective, that's just because somehow the Cabal has infiltrated this field (along with pretty much every other field that could support your narrative) and that Ms. Kelly is the single brave soul resisting them. But her not being fired from a field doesn't exactly lend any credibility to her being an actual expert in this field.
Experts have verifiable credentials, and she's decided she doesn't want credentials that can be verified. Which is always suspicious to people who verify their information before trusting it.
I am relaying the information she willingly provided to an outlet who then reported it. You can choose to disbelieve it if you want, but unless you personally know the woman, you can't really disagree on using the internet in order to acquire information.
And I'm fairly certain you know exactly what the words I will use to contest her opinion would be. I do not see her as an expert in the field, nor does anyone else in the field.
You do see her as an expert in the field. And as long as you do, then nothing I say is going to overcome her allegedly expert testimony.
Which is why I'm focusing on establishing her credentials. Because the strength of her testimony exists purely on her credentials, which is why she makes such a big deal about it. And if those don't exist, or at least aren't nearly as strong as she implies, then the expert opinions of actual experts will trump the opinions of someone like her to anyone looking at this issue empirically.
Well, sure, I'll do your research for you. Although I fail to see why this was beyond your own capabilities.
She doesn't actually make any claims until about halfway through, so let's start there.
She refers to a COVID particle as a "COVID micron" which immediately calls into question her expertise. A micron is a specific unit of size equal to a micrometer. It's not a way to indicate a discrete viral unit. A COVID particle is equal to 0.1 microns, so she's already using the terminology incorrectly for an "expert".
Any indication that this is too small for a mask to filter is wrong, because COVID particles do not float around on their own. They're stuck to other molecules, usually water, which can absolutely be caught by masks.
She is correct that many people touch their masks. That's a behavioral problem, not a problem with the masks. People unable to use masks properly is not an indication that masks don't work. Just like people misusing guns to commit mass shootings are not demonstrating that guns don't work.
She was also right that setting the mask on the desk wasn't a good look. Also means nothing as evidence.
I have no problems with implementing other means of viral control. Again, saying that something else works doesn't indicate that masks do not.
Was there some other groundbreaking point she made that you think can't be responded to? Because over half the video was her insisting she's an expert, and really only the one major evidence-based claim which, as I see, is not actually evidenced.
Verify, then trust. That's how you avoid being taken in by non-experts claiming to be experts. Even if you think the whole media is out to get you, it's still worth at LEAST seeing what they have to say before claiming victory.
I don’t understand why you ask for an outside opinion of me, and when I provide it, you inevitably fall back on how the Cabal can’t be trusted and everything on my side is lies from them and so forth.
The only thing worse than immediately trusting anything from Google is immediately distrusting anything that is within Google’s reach.
I identity my opposition based on them being against my positions. I don’t identify my positions based on my opposition taking the opposite opinions. That’s not scientific.
And keep in mind I’m not trying to convince you of anything. I’m telling you why nobody is experiencing the Great Awakening based solely on you telling everyone that the Cabal is Everywhere and Lying about Everything.
It would be nice if there was a link to the regulation/standard thing she rattled off
