This reminds me of that time [well-known oncologist scold] said efforts to combat the vaccine denial cult were...some bad basketball metaphor...or something.

He purged all of the attack tweets and dunking analogies. Honestly impressed by his thoroughness. Scrubbed the crime scene clean.

So I heard. I wonder if there's a podcast I could listen to to hear more of his views on this matter. He's so underexposed.

I wish I had screenshots of the multiple tweets where he accused others of only caring about likes & followers. Sounded weirdly like projection...

His stated view that science communication efforts aren't valuable (to whom?) or worth experts' time because they aren't as "impressive" as critiquing poorly-supported, established practices (like he does) conveyed his confusion perfectly.

That’s because the Great Dr. Prasad views combatting medical pseudoscience and antivaccine views as so very, very much less difficult than what he does and therefore so very, very beneath a Very Eminent Rising Star in Oncology such as himself.
