    Agree. My snark is reserved for the leaders and activists of the antivaccine movement. They are not persuadable and are actively spreading dangerous antivaccine disinformation. The leaders, in particular, are also often profiting from their activities.https://twitter.com/PeterHotez/status/1217830342356295680 …

        Also, parents who are on Twitter spewing antivax conspiracy theories and have antivax slogans in their Twitter bios are hard core and almost never persuadable.

        I also don't care for people that are pretending to be "just asking questions" when they have a timeline full of antivax BS. Notyourmom tried this recently claiming they would've been convinced had I not called them an antivaxxer.pic.twitter.com/0quNSobrPD

        Hrm. I'm not surprised to hear that they are profiting, but thru what mechanism? Sham "treatments" for autism, and homeopathic vaccines?

        That, plus books and talks and whatnot. Sometimes it's MLM essential oils, variety is the spice of life.

        Sure, since you're a doctor, you have to believe that. Normies like me are done giving a free pass to parents who are endangering us all. They all need to be treated as threats

        I agree, snark is warranted for the ring leaders of the AV movement. And they can hardly complain when you consider the cyber stalking etc they perpetrate against doctors countering their misinformation.

        Ring leaders are you serious 😂 People are illiterate and can't think for themselves is that what your implying? How much money are you getting paid by big pharma to spread your lies. The WHO just admitted only last week that vaccines are unsafe. #Informedconsent
