yes but you still have to have faith in the ability of another person to do science and not falsify evidence
but you can't! are you personally able to verify the results of every scientific investigation ever performed? think about what's currently happening in psychology. loads of old foundational studies have been found to be irreproducible. and yet people had faith that they were conducted honestly and appropriately
not within your lifetime though. you just have to have faith in the peer review process. also peer reviewing typically does not involve actually reproducing the results
