WTF, @PolitiFact? I just learned from @BarryKarr that you marked an article by me on @ScienceBasedMed posted to @center4inquiry's @Facebook page as "False and spreading disinformation." Again, WTF? This is the article. 1/https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/can-mrna-based-covid-19-vaccines-cause-prion-disease/ …

Seriously,
@PolitiFact, read it again. It does EXACTLY the opposite and says basically the same thing as your own article on the subject of#COVIDVaccine and prion disease, just in more detail. 2/https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/feb/26/j-bart-classen/coronavirus-vaccine-doesnt-cause-alzheimers-als/ …1 reply 0 retweets 28 likesShow this thread -
I mean, really,
@PolitiFact, haven't you ever heard of Betteridge's law of headlines? Did you even bother to read the intro blurb that points out J. Bart Classen's idea is based on bad speculative science? 3/1 reply 0 retweets 23 likesShow this thread -
I said much the same thing as the
@ACSHorg post you cited, again, only in more detail. 4/https://www.acsh.org/news/2021/02/19/no-covid-mrna-vaccine-wont-cause-alzheimers-or-prion-disease-15357 …1 reply 0 retweets 21 likesShow this thread -
Seriously,
@Poynter and@PolitiFact, by marking my post as "spreading disinformation," you screwed up most embarrassingly, making me think you're relying on brain dead FB algorithms or that you can't read. Read it again. 5/https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/can-mrna-based-covid-19-vaccines-cause-prion-disease/ …1 reply 3 retweets 35 likesShow this thread -
Basically,
@sciencebasedmed, founded by@stevennovella and , exists to counter medical disinformation such as the claim by J. Bart Classen that#COVIDVaccine can cause Alzheimer's disease or prion diseases. Do better.

Oops. One little mistake was pointed out by
