Ugh, @nola_catholics! The Church has said time and time again that the great good of vaccinating outweighs the distant “evil” of how the cell lines were derived. People will die because of you. Catholics (and everyone else) should take the first #CovidVaccine they can get!
And outside of NO, the Catholic Church is even worse. One bishop is actively trying to kill Catholics with his bad #CovidVaccine takes. Image
Perhaps Catholic Bishops can tell me what the difference between using the cell lines in development versus also using them in manufacture is, morally speaking...🙄🤦🏻‍♂️
Or tell us how one of its bishops isn’t trying to kill Catholics with bad advice.

Oh, bloody hell. @RobertKennedyJr has been cozying up to minority communities for a number of years now to spread fear of vaccines. Let's take a trip down memory lane, shall we? 1/
It seems to have gotten its start when RFK Jr. made common cause with @BroTonyMuhammad of the @OfficialNOI back in 2015 to oppose SB 277, the California law that eliminated nonmedical exemptions to school vaccine mandates. 2/ respectfulinsolence.com/2015/06/18/cra…
This alliance continued, and Brother Muhammad spoke at a number of antivaccine events during 2015. 3/ respectfulinsolence.com/2015/06/22/cra…

Or conflating “I personally don’t know anyone affected by this” with “No one is affected by this.”
Or “I personally have never seen it before” with “It’s not a problem.”
And the ever-popular appeal to personal ignorance or incredulity...

Wow. Just wow. I don't think @noorchashm is there yet, but he's definitely sliding towards becoming antivaccine. He's now praising @RobertKennedyJr over provaccine advocates. Let's remind him a bit about RFK, Jr., shall we? 1/
Let's see, @noorchashm. What is it that you admire about RFK Jr.? Is it the multiple times that he's likened vaccination and school vaccine mandates to the Holocaust? Is that what you admire about him? 2/ respectfulinsolence.com/2015/04/09/the…
Or maybe it's the time that RFK Jr. sucked up to then President-Elect Donald Trump, hoping to score a spot as the head of a "vaccine safety" commission. 3/ respectfulinsolence.com/2017/01/11/don…

WTF, @PolitiFact? I just learned from @BarryKarr that you marked an article by me on @ScienceBasedMed posted to @center4inquiry's @Facebook page as "False and spreading disinformation." Again, WTF? This is the article. 1/ sciencebasedmedicine.org/can-mrna-based…
Seriously, @PolitiFact, read it again. It does EXACTLY the opposite and says basically the same thing as your own article on the subject of #COVIDVaccine and prion disease, just in more detail. 2/ politifact.com/factchecks/202…
I mean, really, @PolitiFact, haven't you ever heard of Betteridge's law of headlines? Did you even bother to read the intro blurb that points out J. Bart Classen's idea is based on bad speculative science? 3/

You know, the first time I wrote about @noorchashm, I thought that maybe I had been too hard on him when I called him a "useful idiot" for the antivaccine movement. Now that I see he's appeared on @lifebiomedguru's show, I realize that my gut instinct about him was spot-on. 1/
Let's take a trip down memory lane about @lifebiomedguru for @noorchashm's benefit. You might remember that it didn't take long for him to pivot to #COVID19 crankery last year. 2/ sciencebasedmedicine.org/james-lyons-we…
However, before #COVID19 @lifebiomedguru had a long history of being an antivaccine activist. Basically, he was a scientist who ran a genomics/bioinformatics core who somehow went crank antivax several years ago. 3/

Laughter. And to respond that I'm not going to watch a 2+ hour video by some rando on Twitter about just about anything, much less pushing dubious science. I have better things to do with my time.
If he summarizes his objections and whatever evidence he can muster in the form of an article no more than twice the word count of my blog post, I might engage, but there's no way in hell I'm sitting through such a long video that gave me a headache after 5 minutes.
Seriously, argument by YouTube is the LEAST likely way to get my attention, as I am not going to watch a two hour YouTube video on just about anything.🙄
