Says @DrPanMD in the 2023 summit of @ImmunizeCa: the anti-vaccine effort is now bleeding into policy making - now Florida's surgeon general is an anti-vaccine activist willing to fake information and manipulate data about #vaccines.
Says @DrPanMD in the 2023 summit of @ImmunizeCa: and Ron DeSantis creates a group "public health integrity committee" with people working actively to promote anti-vaccine misinformation (Like Bhattacharya, Kuldorff, Hoeg, etc' - right wing anti-vaccine network).

Says @DrPanMD in the 2023 summit of @ImmunizeCa: generally, public health officers attacked by anti-vaccine activists during the pandemic, harassed intensively. So have pediatricians.
