      No, he’s not. He dismissed debunking quackery because he thinks it’s easy, so easy that it’s far beneath his exaltedness, that it should be so obvious that it’s nonsense that it’s trivial to explain and counter. It’s not, and he is utterly clueless about what it takes,

      Let's turn this around @gorskon, how do you prioritize your efforts?

      Stay tuned. That’s too big a question for Twitter (for me at least, given Twitter’s lack of nuance); so I might very well have to write a post about it sometime in the next week or two.

      Looking forward to reading it. May have to pencil in a few hours for one of your posts. 😉 But seriously, where I see more need is high-profile science with a big impact. For me, potential cancelation of football was a big deal—hence my concentration on “COVID myocarditis”.

      Replying to @AngryCardio @gorskon and

      I couldn't care less about football, but this message of myocarditis was being used to auger waves upon waves of people with heart failure and instilling inappropriate fears in people who *recovered* from COVID.

      Plenty of rational, normal people were being harmed by bad takes on this science.

      Plenty of rational, normal people are being harmed by bad takes on masks and the promotion of #COVID19 "cures" like #Hydroxychloroquine, too. The latter of those, I remind you, was touted by a lot of otherwise reasonable academics before there was any good evidence.

      Genuine question (without wishing to get involved in a dispute): is it true to say a lot of “reasonable academics” touted HCQ as a cure? 1/2

      Didier Raoult, who has a Nobel prize for HIV, which means he presumably hadn't lost his mind at that stage.. But nobody else I can think of. Prof Donald Trump (of Trump University)?

      I think you are confusing Didier Raoult with Luc Montagnier

      I think so too, given that Luc Montagnier has gone full antivax...https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/11/28/the-nobel-disease-strikes-again-luc-montagnier-goes-full-antivax-with-a-little-help-from-henri-joyeux/ …
