On the other hand, my wife has a degree in Physics and explains what the papers are saying - which does not good, since I don't understand her either.

So, being qualified is one of the criteria for doing actual research - even if you are only researching the research papers published. understanding 99% of the words, does not mean you understand the topic.
So true. The most egregious example of this was about a month ago, when someone posted that they don't listen to the CDC, NIH, WHO, or FDOH----they do "their own research" and then make "their own decision" Well, rotsa ruck with that.

Yep, we should all ignore Fauci, Birx, Walensky and all the experts and just listen to this guy---he did "research"
In fact, why isn't this guy standing at the podium at the White House instead of all the others???
