#antivaxx efforts now even use #deepfake
to target #refugee, Black, religious minority communities
like measles outbreak in Minnesota in 2019: Wakefield was flown in TO spread #misinformation & #disinformation
Now: online fake accounts/fake identities vs #VaccinesWork

What has #healthcare been doing meanwhile?
#Medbikini: Teach (male Asian) med students to make fake accounts to cyberstalk trainees’ personal Facebook for: bikini
or “being political” or “religious” (#BLM)
➡️“model minority” pipeline for “shadow faculty” vs Blck @ayshakhoury

#Medbikini #research got flak for men vs women
BUT was ALSO fake acct #surveillance vs #BLM like drove out @ayshakhoury @uche_blackstock @nhannahjones
While academia has ignored #vaccineequity
➡️ongoing #pandemic & deaths in marginalized targeted by #antivaxx

#Medbikini“sexist”? Yes BUT misses #blackintheivory BY women
“Amy Cooper” of schools/Kar*n is female & targets Black via police
@USC spreads/teaches this at #MedEd conferences: report (stalk) your students=shadow faculty
who labeled as “intimidating”
#DrSusanMoore (Xmas 2020)

#DrSusanMoore (Xmas 2020)
Today: first #Chrismas for #DrSusanMoore’s son w/out her
The hospital trusted to care for her? Mislabeled her “intimidating” after death
Whether #MedBikini or @USC conference pic
mislabeling Black as “threat”?
ACTIVELY taught/spread in #MedEd

Who lost parents in #pandemic? Primarily Black & marginalized.
“#COVID19 does not affect kids”
Tell that to these kids whose #Christmas2021 is without at least one parent. There is tremendous pain in that. Hard to have #MerryChristmas

These communities NEED exactly the Black doctors
who are mislabeled, driven out
by “#professionalism”
that is really is hospital #marketing & reputation management via bullying & stalking
Example of 👍🏾 #Christmas2021 #SciComm for saving Black lives from #COVID19 #pandemic

There is a rise of #deepfake #disinformation #misinformation including by #antivaxx threatening #SciComm & especially threatening communities of color.
#AcademicTwitter & #MedTwitter? Busy teaching to create fake accts to stalk students, NOT to save lives with #VaccineEquity

#Antivaxx target Black communities. This is a sinister (& effective) tactic that kills Black & marginalized
By worsening #VaccineEquity yt make influencers claim #VaccinePassports “racist”
& using Black community as shield/prop for *own* non-compliance

From my own #refugee work in #community & in #MedEd, know this targeting at top of 🧵 from @oni_blackstock tweet
has been longstanding & ramping up
Somali #refugees tend to be marginalized from/by both Muslim & Black communities + #PTSD (fear-based tactics work)
=“easy targets”

Yet #academia
-has ignored #antivaxx threat
-has instead mislabeled & fired Black, women, LGBTQ, etc
-teaches as “#professionalism”: make fake accounts & cyberstalk students
This is a direct threat to not only careers but to lives of Black & brown patients. It orphans children.

Race concordance of #HCW & patient in #healthcare DOES matter
for measured outcomes like mortality in infants & any age group
Without marginalized group doctors, cannot save these lives
Especially as #professionalism *teaches* bias/implicit bias

Exactly this time last year, @TamorahLewisMD 🧵 on deprioritization & bias

Black doctor called “intimidating” for her knowledge

“social media voice”
➡️mislabeling Black doc in #SciComm as “threat”

Those who mislabel/smear a 👩🏾⚕️after her death (“intimidating” is that) lack ethics, humanism
untrustworthy
hospital #marketing & reputation management, if suppresses/smears frontline & patients = direct threat to #HCW #safety & entire #pandemic efforts

“You have to smear his reputation every chance you can. If he is divorced or has unpaid traffic tickets, try to put it into the record. Get the jury to forget the amputation and look at Hatfield as a money-grubbing, hateful scoundrel.”

are SAME as
#deepfake #misinformation #disinformation (mislabeled, manipulated, smears)
public will NOT trust #SciComm and
WILL turn to #antivaxx “martyr” discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/a…

When lawyers & business people run #healthcare
when all #HCW (=caring & service) are employed
when frontline: muzzled, threatened, under #surveillance
preventable harm occurs
both staff & public lose trust
these problems in #dermatology? now imagine in #ICU, in marginalized

To be clear, capitalism is not newly taking over healthcare
reason why @AmerAcadPeds exists? 100 years ago AMA doctors rejected #SDOH/#nutrition as #healthcare, smeared #pediatrics as “social medicine”, essentially same as Goldfarb’s @WSJ OpEd
capitalistic docs➡️private equity

Senior #MedEd faculty writes provocative @WSJ OpEd then files lawsuit against students/frontline trainee over tweets
during a #pandemic
The @USC-encouraged policing of student #SoMe earlier in 🧵? “Your Student Posted What on Twitter?” ➡️lawsuits against students/doctors

None of this is new
Is long-standing culture of academia
now made public on #MedTwitter & fought via screenshots➡️lawsuits
If #MedEd deans are so concerned about a student tweet
are they concerned about #vaccine #misinformation or #vaccineequity or >800K American deaths?

Who has💰to file a lawsuit? Do med students have the 💰 to hire quality counsel?
This is a new type of power imbalance
NOT being taught in #SciComm or #SoMe: what if your own #MedEd dean sues you?
Meanwhile, these #BCAC @BCAgainstCOVID doctors often work as volunteers, no 💰

Academic medicine fails over &over on delivering #quality, #safety, #outcomes, especially marginalized
Instead creates fights
mislabels the BIPOC activists
Who try to save lives in own communities
