    Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD Retweeted Monica S

    So we know doctors can be susceptible to the antiscience lobby now mainstreaming and merging with conservative groups. Now when I give medical grand rounds lectures via Skype or speak to medical societies, it’s common for one of the docs to challenge me on vaccines or maskshttps://twitter.com/moniconga/status/1383768980825903105 …

    Replying to @PeterHotez
    At her annual check-up, my mother's TX ophthalmologist told her he "hates to see his patients living in fear" because she had mask on while fully vaccinated. When told that is CDC guideline, he said "it has become too political" and "there is no science behind it." Pissed us off!

        My GP said on the phone "there's no real evidence masks work". I couldn't believe my ears!

        Do you think COVID will be with us longer thanks to denial and misinformation?

        Not medical but I worked w/guy who had a PhD in physics from Harvey Mudd but he was a fervent "young Earther." He also had serious problems with any *theoretical* physics. Kind of limited what we cld talk about beyond Newton.

        “ smart people believe weird things because they are skilled at defending ideas they arrived at for non smart reasons” I think I got that right.

        This resistance by the medical community is the 2nd worst behavior in this pandemic in my opinion. The selfishness of the general public is the 1st.
