      The @WHOrecently held its Global Vaccine Safety Summit. Antivaccine propagandist @DelBigtree cherry picked quotes to make it seem as though WHO scientists were questioning vaccine safety and made a video. https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/01/15/who-scientists-did-not-question-the-safety-of-vaccines-at-the-global-vaccine-safety-summit/ …pic.twitter.com/gdn3bRNOgZ

      Sciblogs' (@sciblogsnz) vaccinologist attended the meeting, and has written on it:https://sciblogs.co.nz/diplomaticimmunity/2020/01/14/the-who-vaccine-safety-summit-from-someone-who-was-actually-there/ …

      I'd really like to know more about the context of and reaction to Dr. Soumya Swaminathan's statement. I think I know what she was trying to say, but she said it badly, in a way that made it easy for Bigtree to pounce on.

          My read is she's referring to places like the DRC, where infrastructure—for everything, not just health—is limited. The latter part of it can be confused with individual case reporting, a different thing. I suspect many only read Bigtree's (misleading!) glosses & react to that.

          That's what I thought too. In my post, I pointed out that Bigtree was deceptively implying that vaccine safety problems in Third World countries where infrastructure is extremely lacking indicate that vaccines in First World countries are unsafe.

          No David, she said the truth. Unlike the commercial for the WHO where she lied.

          Thinking further about it, they're talking to a group *very* familiar with the wider story. An upshot is speakers don't make _explicit_ things they know their audience already understand—implied knowledge, etc. Unfortunately easy for others to read or "play" another context into.

          SHE SAYS WE’RE NOT ABLE TO GIVE VERY GOOD CLEAR ANSWERS WHEN PEOPLE ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT THE DEATHS THAT HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO A PARTICULAR VACCINE. That’s a DIRECT QUOTE!!!!
