I once met a former radiochemist who claimed he could feel radiation. Similar to anti-vax nurses, certain people can have been directly taught all the things that would debunk their crank shit and keep those beliefs anyway.

At a certain point, these people become so convinced that they have the "special secret" that any evidence against their position only reinforces it, because why would people try to disprove them so hard unless they are right?

Anti-vax nurses are pretty common where I am from. Tbh they are the whole „dunning-kruger effect“ personified, doesn’t help that there is a idealistic class tension narrative between the „soyboy arrogant doctor“ and the „experienced working class nurse“
