It’s not just save as many lives as possible at all costs, saving 20 kids but 2 will develop debilitating peanut allergies isn’t worth it. Progress must be done slowly ensuring no harm is done along the way.

Telling anxious parents to have their kids avoid peanuts caused harm that wouldn’t have happened otherwise. I guess it’s valuable to better understand allergies, but learning at others’ expense isn’t worth it.

This research shows physicians harmed kids recommending they avoid allergens like peanuts, is that something we should ignore because all the benefits of science are “worth it”?
Science is amazing not because it’s always right, but because it (should) strive to always do better next time
“it’s worth it” is a horrible argument when people’s health is on the line.
