      Here, the good doctor is repeating a false dichotomy frequently used by antivaxxers. https://twitter.com/noorchashm/status/1357189410878595076 …

      And...Dr. Hooman continues to unwittingly repeat classic antivax false dichotomies. https://twitter.com/noorchashm/status/1357195227484872706 …

      Serious Dr. David, shall we round the one who refuse, mark them for easy ID and put them on a bus to a state south of the mason Dixon line. My friend, we live in a diverse country. Unless u respect people and meet all where they are, as an expert, u will lose trust. Get a grip.

      You want to meet antivaxxers "where they are", which is the land of nonsense and science-denial? Sounds like a great plan that will surely work, and has never ever been tried in the past and failed miserably.

      Replying to @joefulgham @noorchashm @gorskon

      Every single one of them got met "where they are" at the start of this. They all had it pointed out that they had no evidence to back up their position and the other side had *mountains* of evidence. And they didn't care. Now you're caught up. What's your plan now?

      Respect people. What would you propose we do? You ever visit the Amish in PA Lancaster County? U respect people and meet them where they are. Unless you’re an arrogant prick in a white coat with glitzy but useless academic titles.

      So you sit there in a room with them and "respect" them? And then... how does the vaccination get done, after you've... "respected" them?

      They do not consent? They do not get. It’s a principle of medical ethics. It called autonomy. When u do not respect the patient’s decision, u are operating in unethical space.

      So... your plan to handle anti-vaxxers is *exactly* what anti-vaxxers want? Your position fixes nothing, except that now we're polite to assholes who are endangering others. Terrible plan. Thanks for sharing!

      It’s a slow process. Public education. Education in the principles of immunology....and recovering trust in experts. “Experts” like Gorski erode trust in Exactky the quarters where trust needs to be earned to build bridges. Arrogance kills trust.

      Here’s the funny thing. It takes a lot of arrogance to keep pushing a “safe vaccination” plan for ##COVID19 without good evidence. It takes a lot of evidence to pontificate about how to deal with antivaxxers when one had no clue that @RobertKennedyJr is a leader of the movement.
