      I do love how antivaxers like @RobertKennedyJr misinterpret and misrepresent science. Oh, and Brian Hooker's "reanalysis" is en epic of statistical and epidemiological incompetence.https://twitter.com/LinnyJackson/status/1197235248498692096 …

      Sigh. I suppose someone, either I or someone else, might have to deconstruct all the misinformation in @ChildrensHD's little slideshow. It's just so painful to have to refute the same antivaccine lies, misinformation, misinterpretations of science, and tropes over and over again.

      The problem is that some of the slides would require their own blog posts to explain why they are bogus. It would take a series of posts to properly unpack all the bullshit contained in that slide set.

      Mawson et al OR of 30 immed. raised a red flag so read paper: "pilot study" (their language, not snark quotes), based on convenience sample of home school kids w/ online survey & rather "leading q" invite to respondents that invites selection bias. Vax status classification weird

      Oh, I’ve written extensively about the Mawson study, it’s retraction, and its resurrection. For example...https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/05/08/a-horrendously-bad-vaxedunvaxed-study-rises-from-the-dead-yet-again/ …

          Unfortunately, Mawson did finally get his “studies” ) if you can call them that) published, but in a predatory journal.
