    #GreatBarringtonDeclaration: #COVID19 deniers are following a propaganda path laid down by creationists, HIV/AIDS denialists, and climate science deniers, that of the list of scientists and a fake appeal to authority.https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/great-barrington-declaration/ …

        Yep. I think I'll call these "declarations," "petitions," and "open letters" signed by a bunch of scientists or doctors (who rarely have the relevant expertise to make such sweeping comments) "scientific astroturf" or "medical astroturf."

        Dr Gorski, great, interesting article. The herd immunity propaganda is so dangerous. Long term effects worry me. Aren’t there a couple of types of cancer associated with past viral infection? Persistent or latent viral infection possibility? Young people should be warned.

        Great response! There are so many troubling issues with this "declaration" it's hard to know where to start. And thanks for including my recent thread!https://twitter.com/thereal_truther/status/1314608597003771905 …

        Hey @MartinKulldorff, why does your #COVID "declaration" blame government lockdowns for missed vaccine appointments, cancer screenings, surgeries & deteriorating mental health when ALL are actually consequences of the pandemic & occurred in countries that didn't lockdown also? pic.twitter.com/cc2fHwtlzG

        I spit coffee all over my keyboard when I read that "reduce turnover in nursing homes" was proposed as a real solution. When my team tests on consecutive weeks, it is expected that 5% turnover has happened. These people are not serious. And they reek of eugenics.

        This is a libelous tweet and I'm reporting it. Professor @SunetraGupta is a hugely distinguished epidemiologist at the University of Oxford and the UK has fierce libel laws. Please delete this tweet.

        It can't be libel as it doesn't name anybody, and it's true.
