      I am not speaking at this event. Vaccines, e.g. against measles, polio, yellow fever, smallpox, have saved millions of lives. It is unethical, unscientific and dangerous for patients to be against vaccines as a matter of “principle”. https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1096391877094502402 …

      How would you advise to best verify is someone is “antivax”, champ?

      OTOH, being announced as a star speaker in an antivax convention can be a huge giveaway.pic.twitter.com/MDTbyA7ZIv

      I’m glad he clarified he isn’t speaking at that quack fest. Why he was announced as a speaker is a mystery then.

      No it's not. I bet @PGtzsche1 agreed to speak there and only pulled out when he was "educated" about the nature of his fellow speakers and @picphysicians, the organization that's sponsoring the antivax quackfest.

          Saw the speaker fee before the guest list, perhaps? If true, that’s interesting. Especially for a person who made a career of accusing others’ of conflict of interest and financial motivations.
