After some thought, I decided to delete that Tweet. I'm a sarcastic guy, but if that Tweet risks patients of my cancer institute having to endure antivaxxers disrupting the environment where they're being treated, it's not worth it.
I commend you for that decision. I know that they’ll support you if they show up though. They know that you take good care of them.
So would the administration. They support a scientist who gets fairly regular protests by animal rights activists, and antivaxxers are so much worse.
If only we could actually assume that these people would do better than harass cancer patients. But we cannot. They have in the past.
Indeed. I could even see one of them making an appointment to see me in order to harangue me and disrupt my clinic. It’s not beyond them.
Definitely not. And Josh is particularly brazen
