      Absolute Muppet says he and others are being silenced while being interviewed on national TV, after a year of wall-to-wall coverage of his fringe ideas about COVID-19 "Silenced" 😂pic.twitter.com/yVT7nbOGBi

      I’m going to push back on this because Heneghen rightly called out the NHS for misleading data - and his track record at Oxford CEBM is worthy of respect. This doesn’t mean he’s always right or beyond criticism. But it’s also worth considering one of his co-author’s take on this:pic.twitter.com/zD25EcKxsD

      Heneghen WAS worthy of respect. But when you push ideas and policies that result in massive death and #LongCoVid? Nope. Here's the thing....he gambled that his predictions would be proven right. If he had been /1

      right, you don't think he would have been riding that victory to a Lordship? He gambled. He lost. Now, he's crying about it? Please. He needs to shut up, take his lumps, and keep what little dignity he has. Because crying about it? Just loses him more respect.

      I’ve been following his sometime co-author health economist @danielhowdon for a few months and have found his analyses and critiques insightful. I singled out his comment as a rejoinder to the Muppet comment by the OP.

      Ah, so it's horrible abuse to point out that "silenced" is absurd nonsense, but totally fine and dandy to imply I'm an arrogant, racist, despicable glory hound with no interest in facts beyond my own desire for an authoritarian state Fascinating position to take
