I couldn't agree more!
If someone says it, puts it in writing or on TV or the internet it MUST be true, right?
Add "If you can get a college degree, masters or doctorate for it" to the list.

The immediate thought is aimed at folks having some dr. degree based upon medical viruses, for which there is no existing, solid, scientific proof of existence - YET.
That entire field is based upon 2 conflicting and competing theories positing the existence of these infinitely small things that our species does not yet have the tools to isolate or measure with any surety.
So how can such things be a focus for any sort of diagnosis or treatments ??
Yet the whole planet got shut down (and may be again quite soon...) based upon things that cannot even be proven to exist.
Wow.
Of course this also makes me think of all the times I've seen folks getting $100 of scratch off lottery tickets, beer and smokes when they only made maybe $50 that day - all the while complaining about how hard they work only to be endlessly broke...yep - OK.
It seems that being attentively aware is just not of interest to most folks - any more than doing the simple math to see that spending $500 a week on useless BS with a take home pay of only $250 ain't gonna work out very well for very long...and that doesn't count the needs for rent, food, fuel, etc.
Wow.
