But what about
@JaffeRick? He's pumped for this antivaccine crankfest where he'll be speaking. 15/https://twitter.com/jafferick/status/1096091359797305344 …David Gorski, MD, PhD added,

Five years ago, I wrote about how
@JaffeRick was cancer quack@DrStanBurzynski's legal pit bull and how he pioneered the abuse of the@US_FDA's clinical trial process to let#Burzynski continue to con desperate cancer patients. 16/https://www.csicop.org/si/show/stanislaw_burzynski_four_decades_of_an_unproven_cancer_cure …1 reply 3 retweets 14 likesShow this thread -
These days,
@JaffeRick has latched onto defending a new breed of quacks, those who run for-profit stem cell clinics selling unproven treatments for huge sums of money. 17/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/11/21/fda-cracks-quack-stem-cell-clinics/ …1 reply 2 retweets 10 likesShow this thread -
In fairness, though, even
@JaffeRick seems to be uncomfortable with the sheer level of pseudoscience and quackery being sold by these clinics. OTOH, it's less the quackery than the fear that going too far will provoke@US_FDA to crack down. 18/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/08/08/richard-jaffe-vs-quack-stem-cells/ …1 reply 2 retweets 12 likesShow this thread -
As am amusing aside,
@JaffeRick is not happy that moves are being made to make it harder for doctors to receive CME credit for studying "integrative medicine" quackery. 19/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/08/08/richard-jaffe-vs-quack-stem-cells/ …2 replies 2 retweets 12 likesShow this thread -
So
@PGtzsche1 has associated himself with quite the wretched hive of scum and antivaccine quackery these days.@picphysicians is nothing more than a pseudoscience- and quackery-spewing antivax group trading on the trust we have in doctors to promote dangerous misinformation. 20/3 replies 2 retweets 15 likesShow this thread -
My good buddy
@skepticalraptor has the lowdown on@picphysicians. 21/https://www.skepticalraptor.com/skepticalraptorblog.php/physicians-for-informed-consent-another-radical-anti-vaccine-group/ …1 reply 2 retweets 12 likesShow this thread -
Sadly,
@picphysicians routinely spreads dangerous antivax misinformation. 22/https://www.skepticalraptor.com/skepticalraptorblog.php/mmr-vaccine-causes-seizures-physicians-informed-consent/ …4 replies 2 retweets 12 likesShow this thread -
So let's just put it this way. For
@PGtzsche1 to agree to appear at a@picphysicians event with a bunch of hard core antivaxers like@RobertKennedyJr, Mary Holland, and@tonibark and a quack defender like@JaffeRick is NOT a good look. 23/2 replies 2 retweets 13 likesShow this thread
I used to try to give @PGtzsche1 the benefit of the doubt. No more. He no longer merits it. 24/

The bottom line is that
@PGtzsche1 had become an antivaccine crank and deserves to be dismissed as such, just like the quacks he'll be appearing with in a month in Costa Mesa at the@picphysicians event. It's sad, but unfortunately true. 25/257 replies 7 retweets 30 likesShow this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
