    Welp...I seem to have had an influx into the comments of yesterday's post of rabid defenders of #DrDanErickson and Dr. Artin Massihi, the urgent care center entrepreneurs turned dangerously incompetent epidemiologists promoting bad #COVID19 statistics.🙄https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/04/28/erickson-massihi-bogus-epidemiology-covid-19/ …

        Aha. I see the reason. Blog traffic yesterday was up 10X compared to an average Tuesday and looks to be on track for similar numbers today. Clearly some of that traffic is coming from right wing sources.

        I enjoyed your post and shared it in a thread where a few friends have been trying to take buckets to this bullshit tsunami. I have one issue with it that I hope you reconsider in the future...

        ...in the opening paragraphs it comes across as though other disciplines might not have something to contribute to the study of epidemiology. There are people who have skills in math and modeling in other disciplines who may be able to bring a different perspective.

        Benefit of the doubt means people will get harmed or killed with their quackery. @gorskon is not the quack

        It is mind-blowing how people latch onto quackery that agrees with their biases and lash out when the quackery is exposed.

        I shouldn't be so quick to judge these guys, but they both look like total losers. Not all physicians are equal, and these guys are the bottom of the barrel. The fact that they are in Bakersfield, CA seals the deal.

        Docs (likely of a particular political affiliation) in Facebook groups are up in arms over YouTube taking down the videos. Crying about "free speech" like they have any concept of how that works. One person even pulled the Galileo gambit and labeled these quacks "visionaries"pic.twitter.com/ewo4EggDww
