Holy crap, this is dumb. A baby with a breathing tube would not be sucking on a pacifier. That's a nasogastric feeding tube, you idiot, and those look like hemangioma; i.e., NOT a vaccine reaction. Stop spreading fake antivax news. https://twitter.com/responsibleMDs/status/1227654597004681216 …

I can see that, if this is a parody account, perhaps its owner was trying to get antivaxxers to retweet this particular image. The plan failed. Basically, it's a lot of doctors responding by pointing out the idiocy of the original Tweet.

When parody accounts lead pro-vaccine docs to waste their time refuting the nonsense they're hoping to bait antivaxxers into retweeting, it is not helpful; it is counterproductive.

Oh, well, I suppose I should have known better (I usually do.) But even the most experienced

If it turns out to be a provax parody account, I'll just take my lumps for having been taken in and be glad it wasn't for very long. That's all you can do.

It looks like a parody account, but a rather clumsy one. Does appear to be genuinely anti-pseudoscience.

Yeah, if it's a parody account trying to bait antivaxxers into retweeting that image, it's failed. All it's done is to rile up doctors and lead us to waste our time responding.

The thing is that there are a lot of people out there that think far worse than this. Even if this is a poe. It's not even close to how deluded people can get.

The account was provax so far so I wonder if it is hacked.

Just proof we don’t need censorship to fight misinformation. Correct information is the remedy to misinformation.

How is it that “parody” has morphed from “a humorous satirical imitation” to “I made up some bullshit to get clicks?”
