      As hard as it is to believe, in the middle of a global pandemic that’s claimed so many lives and so thoroughly disrupted society, there are people who still deny germ theory. How can this be?https://respectfulinsolence.com/2021/01/11/even-in-a-deadly-pandemic-germ-theory-denial-persists/ …

      I can't waste time on these folks anymore. Speak to the people who have legit questions and we need to focus our energy on constructive work. You can't argue with conspiracy theorists.

      Who's arguing with conspiracy theorists? Not me. This is for those susceptible to the disinformation and science denial spread by conspiracy theorists and deniers, not for the deniers themselves, who are damned near unreachable.

          And the skeptical community has been warning of the toxic power of platforms that amplify them for at least a decade. Guess people might finally be realizing that we were right.

          Tiffany Dover took the vax, fainted on camera and disappeared entirely after a few days. You commented it was nothing to cause worry. Please take another look, see how the media has framed it, think about why she would be silent (helps nobody) her social media dormant. Strange!!

          Of course, one big reason why her social media might have gone dormant is because #COVID19 cranks and antivaxxers started harassing her. 🙄https://www.skepticalraptor.com/skepticalraptorblog.php/tiffany-dover-nurse-harassed-after-fainting-following-covid-19-vaccine/ …

          That's fair. As someone who does a lot of vaccine advocacy, sometimes I worry that we give them too much press and attention when we should be worried about different messaging
