In the past year, we have all witnessed epistemic trespassing: the politician, celebrity, friend or relation with no scientific or health background that through arrogance, ignorance or naivety believes that their (often misguided) beliefs on COVID19, its treatment or prevention are correct. We have also witnessed the damage that ignoring the experts, acting on incorrect advice or passing it on have caused. Yet some pharmacy researchers may, either unwittingly or deliberately, be guilty of epistemic trespass.In the past year, we have all witnessed epistemic trespassing: the politician, celebrity, friend or relation with no scientific or health background that through arrogance, ignorance or naivety believes that their (often misguided) beliefs on COVID19, its treatment or prevention are correct.
