      This is not okay. @GidMK has made numerous, important, *scientific* critiques of the IFR estimates Ioannidis & his group have put out. To ignore those critiques but instead attack Gideon for his junior status is reprehensible. https://twitter.com/CT_Bergstrom/status/1376080062131269634 …

      John Ioannidis is back in the news yet again, this time for going on a really bizarre ranty & very personal attack on @GidMK (go read it yourself, you’ll be as aghast as I am). So it’s worth remembering how he worked, with success (!), to persuade Trump not to act against COVID⬇️ https://twitter.com/GYamey/status/1370743451864739848 …

      Holy shit. This is shameful. John Ioannidis has reached a new low in his quest to be publicly wrong about the pandemic at every turn. Support and solidarity with @GidMK. https://twitter.com/CT_Bergstrom/status/1376080062131269634 …

      1/J John Ioannidis published an article defending his low estimate of COVID-19's fatality rate. It contains so many distortions that I'll try something I've never done on Twitter for a paper: Go thru distortions page-by-page. This will take awhile. 😑 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/eci.13554 … pic.twitter.com/AyV5RiwQnh

      Dr Kathleen Bachynski @bachyns
      Ioannidis’s comments are also unbelievably disrespectful to public health practitioners without a PhD. Many people with a masters in public health work as epidemiologists in state & local health departments and have done rigorous, life-saving work “on the ground” this pandemic. https://twitter.com/CT_Bergstrom/status/1376080062131269634 …

      We're both MPH, but @LeaMerone has a truly impressive number of letters after her name. The fact that none of them are (yet) PhD is to me the least important aspect of her credentials

      Sorry Gideon. I didn't realize you were MPH as well. That's even more ridiculous. Will delete and repost.

      Maybe I should copy some of my colleagues and put my degrees in my twitter handle, although gidmkmph sounds like a weird car thing 😂
