Well, I know someone with a PhD in chemistry, and he still believes the covid vaccine is designed to kill people, cause a global collapse and all that. The human mind just is never truly safe from this type of thinking.
A PhD doesn't mean anything other than that you are a fast learner and are dedicated enough to work on a project for years. It doesn't mean you are intelligent or even that you know everything in your field, however it does usually result in you being an expert in a very specific small corner of your field.
I have a PhD
Oh it was not..?

This is a very interesting case study in how confirmation bias can affect conspiratorial thinking, thank you.
To add to @Erk@cddn.social, this is about the virus being designed ti kill, not the vaccine, andteven cites Pfizer's director.
Dr McCullough is regularly posting studies for the jabs too.
