Pandemic Memes

Ever watched the public freak out when scientists update their findings? That's the scientific method in its natural habitat! 🔬 The tweet nails why there's such a disconnect during crises like pandemics. Most folks only see the final, polished research papers, not the messy, iterative process behind them. When science happens in real-time with everyone watching, changing recommendations aren't "flip-flopping" – they're literally how science is supposed to work! And then there's our Minion friend at the bottom with the blunt translation! While not exactly the most diplomatic take, it does capture that frustration scientists feel when the public mistakes the self-correcting nature of science for incompetence. Next time someone says "but scientists changed their minds!" just smile and say "Yes! Isn't it wonderful how science works?"
