Here’s the promised footage of empty seats at the NY Trump rally @TheGoodLiars @KamalaHQ was right. Low energy. People leaving early. Thanks for the suggestion to go.

Here’s 450 pages of me saying what I think.🧵
Image I think the plan to purposefully infect unvaccinated kids to have them serve as human shields was a moral abomination. Image

So I started a YouTube channel which is nothing more than just clips of doctors talking.

If I’m wrong, then these videos are right.

So watch some of them, and make the case that these aged well.

🧵

Did we have herd immunity summer 2020?

Make the case that we basically had herd immunity in May 2021 and Covid was seasonal.

Many doctors tried to convince you were hysterical, just wildly overreacting throughout the pandemic.

You were a panicking lunatic. You were mockable.

Look how one doctor, who never treated covid patients, describe those who tried to stop the virus.

It was a PANIC

Let’s discuss this by Dr. Marty Makary on the misinformation site Sensible Medicine.

A long thread, basically a @ScienceBasedMed article.

I hope you’ll take the time to read it. Image Here’s one of three articles that will help you understand why it is a antivaccine misinformation site. sciencebasedmedicine.org/apology/

It became normal for doctors to *mock* people who doubted the end of the pandemic and to shame those who tried to avoid infection.

Let’s do a linguistic tour through the pandemic. If you tried to avoid the virus, you were ridiculed. Image

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.

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)

academic.oup.com/eurheartj/adva… 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

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

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🧵

tinyurl.com/JonathanHoward… 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

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.

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

The worst essay of the pandemic was written a year ago. It promoted the idea that it was “healthy” for children to get sick with covid. It favorably quoted F. balloux who gave my all the words in my bio for objecting to this quote, which was spread to the world in an article that said we should accept kids dying as a “matter of course.”

If 1 in a million kids died of covid, then a maximum of 73 could die if every kid in USA got covid. That sad milestone occurred summer 2020. Every death after that proved the pediatric death rate was higher.

(Quote 2 is Prasad).

So… What did that JAMA article say? It said that around 1 in a million kids age 5–11 had died of covid by that point in the pandemic. But of course most kids hadn’t had covid. The death rates are below. Would have been higher without the vaccine.

Fun fact: the guy who paid for the GBD and made “a few suggestions” to it, wants my daughter to drop out of high school so she can smoke with her friends during her break from her shift at Walmart.

This is who influenced and led the antivaccine “nuance” doctors.

Really. The pro smoking article. tucker.liberty.me/how-i-quit-smo…
