but unless you are an infectious disease expert, your internet information is no different than anyone else's internet information.

Assuming you are a VT grad - you are smarter than the average internet bear - as is everyone on here that is a VT grad. You might be right more often than the average person, but right there in line with the rest of the educated people.

As in almost all things like this some highly educated people will end up wrong and some will end up right.

Peace and health to you VT brother.
