Reflection
Introduction
-
Relations between scientific communities and governments are often tense — think back to how science advisers were both given a platform and criticized during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Although scientists and policymakers should be allies, working together and enhancing one another’s efforts to solve society’s problems, in reality they
often compete for power and fight for superiority
-
Scientist should in principle not work together with policymakers. They should work seperately, in dependent from policy makers.
Scientist should supply a technical answer on the cause, description, and solution of any problem they think it is worthwhile to 'attack'
Remember policymakers don't are not a coherent group. They can have opposing views internally.

-
The struggle between science and government, Mulgan explains, stems in part from their having similar objectives yet different approaches to achieving them.
-
That's may be true, but in reality government does not have the experience to solve the issues.
Every doctor must know and understand, that vaccins are important in medical issues.
