Is it not astounding that @Ludvigsson announces that he will "refrain from continuing covid research after threats and hatred." I am actually dumbfounded. In #Sweden experts who have made mistake after mistake when criticized turn themselves into victims.

It is a classic tool to deflect the reality of the damage these experts have done and to almost engage in revisionism in the hope that people will forget. During the Spring @AnnLinde went out in force shouting "discrimination" and "bullying" when #Sweden`s #Nordic neighbours

closed their borders to #Sweden. They closed them to several other countries too. But when #Sweden closed its borders to #Norway they responded with grace and understanding. A Norwegian newspaper nailed it by stating that one has to tread very carefully when criticizing anything

about 🇸🇪 because you can be accused in a very derogatory manner. And in what open, transparent, and democratic country would @Ludvigsson be entertained. 🆘He is a signatory of the #GBD that advocates for herd-immunity through infection which 99% of the world outrightly rejects.

🆘He advocates using children to spread the virus in society.
🆘Children should not wear masks at school.
I mean are we living in cloud cuckoo land? Does he think he would be exempt from scathing criticism from the gov, media, and the public in countries that adopted the

#PrecautionaryPrinciple? I know for certain in #Ireland he would be considered dangerous and a pseudo-scientist. His antics and research would cause outrage. But no in 🇸🇪 all is forgotten. One can be a victim and whitewash all the consequences of one's actions away and use "harsh

criticism" as a stick to beat his critics with and call it "hate".I am sure parent(s) across the world, as well as governments, media, and the public would not have entertained @Ludwigsson one bit, and cries of harassment after what he has done would fall on deaf ears. #Hypocrisy
