Professor  of Public Health Michael Baker is not a "so called" expert, he is an actual expert.  If you can't tell the difference maybe you should keep quiet about his field of expertise.

Professorships are quite hard to come by in this country. They have to have at least one PhD, and have been published on a significant level. So yes, he is an expert in his field.

And maybe it is in the job description of experts to tell the rest of us things we don't want to hear.
