Hm. If you can't discredit the message then try discrediting the messenger.
Pinsky and Rubinsky are looking EVEN MORE more like Bullshitsky.

Some (though not all) of the ingredients for the alliteration can be found in Tom Lehrer's song 'Lobachevsky'. Tom Lehrer was Jewish .. he died a few days ago RIP.

You already discredited yourself, by misrepresenting/misunderstanding the OP.

Wikipedia Wrote:Between February and March 2020, Pinsky made a series of statements concerning the COVID-19 outbreak where he downplayed the seriousness of the pandemic, stating that it was not as bad as the flu, and suggested that it was a "press-induced panic".[55] Pinsky apologized in April 2020, and he urged people to follow the advice of Anthony Fauci.

^^ Do you think this is true or false?

So the views held by 'a group of people' are supported by the delusions of an actual MD under the influence of the Dunning-Kruger effect. Despite Pinski later recognizing the delusory nature of his evidence his delusions continue to support the views already held by 'a group of people'. Did Rubin give an honest report? - I think not.
