In a recent piece, Kari Kuulman emphasizes the dangers of imitating science, asserting that the imitation of scientific advice can be more perilous than outright denial of science. This commentary stems from the latest expose by 'Pealtnägija', which highlighted the issue of influencers giving unscientific health advice that reaches thousands daily. Kuulman points out that while direct opposition to science is evident, there is an insidious trend of mimicking scientific authority that poses a greater threat beneath the surface.

Kuulman articulates concern over how this imitation manifests itself, whether through disparaging medicine, attacking scientific methods, or ignoring the laws of physics. Following these pseudoscientific trends, there often lies an ulterior motive, whether it’s the promotion of a miraculous gadget, dietary supplement, or a self-help course, which are marketed to the public as solutions. This situation raises alarms about the responsibility of influencers and the potential consequences of propagating misinformation disguised as legitimate science.

Overall, Kuulman's reflections serve as a call to be vigilant against the spread of pseudoscience and to recognize that the risks associated with imitating scientific advice can lead to widespread public health crises. He urges a critical examination of the sources and legitimacy of the information being disseminated, particularly in an age where such misleading narratives can travel rapidly online, affecting people's health decisions.
