"tend to bend facts to prove they are right"??? You're delivering that line in a conversation referencing RFK Jr. but not saying a word about HIS long history of totally FALSIFYING???https://twitter.com/JDCBurnhil/status/1344444179758379013?s=19 …

There’s a lot we dont know of the history and most don’t have time to read it all. We have to decide who to trust and know that in the past some maverick scientists were ostracized before subsequently being proved right. So we have to base our choice partly on manners. But thanks

Again, I haven’t taken an anti-vax position. Kindly don’t put words in my mouth, that’s called defamation.

He and his organization are raising numerous intelligent questions and not criticizing and misrepresenting people anonymously like you. I have criticized his wisdom for not encouraging mask use at some events and remain undecided on many issues like the safety of vaccines.

Why can’t these folks just say they’re antivax? Once evidence of safety and efficacy have been demonstrated I have no issue saying that I support vaccines. Why not the same clarity of conviction from these folks?

Simple. They know that society quite correctly frowns upon antivaxxers and therefore try to avoid admitting they’re antivax. That’s why, as much as I detest antivaxxers, I do have a grudging respect for those who are honest and admit that they’re antivax.

As a physician, if U R ethical, U should not detest anyone Dr. Gorski. Many of the folks you classify as "anti-vaxxer" actually have children who experienced a vaccine complication. I know most of these are "unavoidable" complications. But, it's SO easy to B mainstream. sigh.

Not quite. The antivaxxers to whom you refer have children with medical conditions that they have INCORRECTLY ATTRIBUTED to vaccines by confusing correlation with causation, even though there is copious evidence that they weren’t caused by vaccines, conditions such as autism.

Seriously, Dr. Hooman, I’ve been at this a long time. I’ve long studied the errors in thinking that lead parents to mistakenly attribute causation to correlation when none exists. The antivaccine movement is ground zero for this error in thinking.
