I’m don’t do long twitter threads often. But I will now, and it’s not my fault.

But first, let’s look at two news stories. One from 2012 and the other from 2017.

And now our story begins with an adult oncologist who had many thoughts about teachers unions.





Many thoughts





Many thoughts











Many thoughts





How many times did you tweet about teachers unions?





Are there any RCTs that prove any of this?





Many thoughts





Many thoughts





Many thoughts.





Any other adult oncologists have so much to say about unions?

“I am a progressive.”





More thoughts





And we’re done.

So let’s circle back. And really ask yourself if some of the loudest voices against protecting kids from covid possibly had some bigger agenda.

And never forget that the politicization of science is a threat “worse than covid.”
In case you think this whole thread is unfair.

New study on vaccine myocarditis from 44.3 million Koreans

- peak rate was 1 in 19,000 for males 12-17
- 95 total severe cases (all ages)
- 36 fulminate cases (2 in kids)
- 21 deaths (0 in kids, 12 in young adults 22-50 years)

Outcomes in this study are more severe than in all other studies, but at least some of the reactions seem unrelated to the vaccine to me.

1/3 of fulminate cases didn’t even develop symptoms until several weeks after vaccination.

In vaccine to blame?

Other studies are below. ImageImageImageImage
For non severe cases, the outcome is below. I’d get yelled at for quoting it directly. Image

Why did anyone think the precautionary principle meant treating the vaccine as the threatening unknown and the virus as a familiar friend?

Shortly after this tweet was sent… Image
This happened Image
Then this. Image

An effective way to shut down discussion/debate is to reframe criticism as an “attack.”

“Sure, Dr. X said COVID ended in 2021 & vaccine side effects are worse than death, but the REAL problem is you hurt their feelings.”

This itself is an attempt to shame people into silence. ImageImageImageImage
These people don’t want discussion and debate. They want the freedom to spout gross misinformation without anyone correcting them.

More coming soon, but for now…sciencebasedmedicine.org/debating-how-t…

My book, "We Want Them Infected
How the Failed Quest for Herd Immunity Led Doctors to Embrace the Anti-Vaccine Movement and Blinded Americans to the Threat of COVID" is available from @RedhawkPublica1

A little🧵

While many of us were surrounded by mass death, begging people to stay safe, other doctors, sheltered from the consequences of their words, were making YouTube videos and influencing politicians to spread a new virus widely amongst unvaccinated youth. Image
In "We Want The Infected", I name names and bring receipts, extensively quoting famous doctors who minimized the virus repeatedly, spread wild myths, and embraced the anti-vaxx movement.

The intro, foreword by Michael Lewis, and table of contents are⬇️.

I urge you all to read this article, with two things in mind.

- it was written as vaccines were being rolled out.
- around 45,000 young adults have been killed by covid, mostly unvaccinated. Countless others have survived but injured in some way.
Read this and ask yourself if this is a medically “conservative” way to approach a brand new virus that has killed so many young people.

drjohnm.org/2020/12/no-you…
While we are told to shrug off *deaths* we are instead told to fear a condition all researchers describe in favorable terms with regards to it’s short term prognosis. It’s rare and most kids seem to recover well.

This, not death, “deserves respect.”

Some of Vinay Prasads medical reversals:

- covid is going away, kids don’t need vaccines
- all kids got covid already, they don’t need vaccines ImageImage
- massive RCTs aren’t needed for everything
-massive RCTs are needed for everything ImageImage
- myocarditis is alway modest, from the virus
- myocarditis is always serious, from the vaccine Image
