Gut instinct (intuitive thinkers) could see you fall for Covid misinformation

An old friend once said that the intellectual is probably the most vulnerable of all for misinformation. Three reasons.

1) He absorbs the largest amount of secondhand, unverified information.

2) He feels a compelling need to have an opinion on every important question of our time, and thus easily succumbs to "analytical/intellectual" opin­ions offered to him on all such indigestible pieces of information.

3) He considers himself capable of "judging for himself".
