I want to share with you information about your organization that @brithume promoted to try and say masks do not work. To be clear MASKS WORK AND YOU SHOULD WEAR THEM.

Here’s info about @AAPSonline, a thread about discredited quacks pushing disinformation.

First, here’s the overview: @AAPSonline is NOT a scientific organization representative of the medical community. Even their name is disinformation.

How do you know they are not representative of the medical community? Their “studies” and “journal” are not listed in MEDLINE/Pubmed because they publish pseudoscience.

What to see an example of the “work” this organization @brithume just cited in a deadly effort to undermine masks?

Here they are suggesting @BarackObama secretly used his speeches to mass-hypnotize Jews into voting for him.

I am not kidding.

They claim to be “non-partisan” but do not disclose the source but their funding and 100% of their political contributions went to republicans.

The SAME republicans whose president and judiciary committee are now infected with COVID after following @AAPSonline’s mask guidance.

Guys what else @brithume’s favorite medical disinfo purveyors say:

Tobacco taxes HURT PUBLIC HEALTH AND ARE USED TO TRACK AMERICANS.

So @brithume, delete your whole account. You are getting killed and knowingly promoting an antisemitic, anti-science propaganda gang and getting Americans killed.
