Unironically, how do you find reliable information right now? Every 3 days something I thought was scientific consensus about this disease, promulgated by doctors and even by WHO and CDC and governments, turns out to be baseless and shit. Most journals have fast track reviews for this emergency, pre-print servers are being spammed with a million papers a day, and all of this is poorly digested by people and turns into "reliable news" and government actions.

How the fuck does one tell apart the good results from the bad? I am a PhD student (although not in health/biomed) and I'm feeling way overwhelmed by the noise in the information. How the fuck does one do this?

To give you an example. The other day someone in this board was insisting that the chloroquine + azitromicin combo was legit because of a reference that was on google docs. People criticized it, other people defended it. Elon musk quoted that exact source and 99% of the world media quoted Elon Musk. Now the source has been taken down from google docs. Lol.
