      Today was a very, very odd day I testified before @senatehomeland They held a hearing on hydroxychloroquine. Yup, HCQ In the middle of the worst surge of pandemic HCQ It was clear how our information architecture shapes questions of science and medicine of COVID A thread

      There were 4 witnesses. 3 who strongly supported HCQ They believed thousands of Americans were dying from lack of HCQ And then, there was me This split was not a reflection of evidence or the consensus in medicine It reflected ability of the majority to seat more witnesses

      The hearing was a testament to how politicized science has become I shared evidence of studies that have failed to find benefit of HCQ 3 other witnesses shared personal experiences And suggested my testimony was reckless because it would deny people access to lifesaving HCQ

      There was an attempt to make it personal I passed I’m not big on personalizing disagreement I am more comfortable talking data, evidence, science Their engagement with data was sparse And they were horrified that I disagreed

      Most shocking? @RonJohnsonWI, other witnesses essentially argued there is coordinated effort by America's doctors to deny patients HCQ Why would we do this? Because we’re in bed with Pharma A version of the anti-Doctor rhetoric from @realdonaldtrump, his "expert" @scottwatlas

      I tried to explain that doctors don’t want to kill their patients by withhold therapy But evidence matters They tried to flip the narrative: that evidence was misinformation And “art of medicine” was what mattered And most amzing? That @US_FDA, @NIH, Pharma were all corrupt

          On a personal note, it was disheartening to be personally attacked during the hearing By the witnesses, @RonJohnsonWI And on @Twitter during and after But you may be wondering What is going on? Why hold a hearing on HCQ in the middle of the worst surge of the pandemic?

          Why talk Hydroxy when so many Americans are dying? Because it was meant to push a narrative That masks and distancing don’t matter If you get infected – no big deal – take some HCQ Its stunning

          How much stock in HCQ does @RonJohnsonWI own?

          We aren't surprised Russian collaborator @RonJohnsonWI tried to convince everyone that agencies of the US government are corrupt.

          Dr. Jha, as soon as you said one of those involved was @SenRonJohnson , it was understandable. Perverse, ridiculous, stupid sense.
