I think a major problem is that these experts are not simply giving their professional opinions and advice. They are deciding the risk/reward equation for such a large population and not allowing individuals to decide their own risk/reward thresholds. For some people it may not be a big deal to go the rest of their lives worrying about blood clots, heart issues or coming out of menopause in their late 60s. But I like to decide for myself what I'm willing to risk living with for the rest of my life, versus the off-chance that I (as a healthy individual) may get infected.
And don't even get me started on how raging mad the Times gets me!!
Great post.
