      Yesterday I did a thread on the Atlas/DeSantis/Great Barrington Declaration roundtable & their STRONG opposition to distancing & staying at home as ways to prevent infection/deaths In this thread (my last one on the roundtable!) I discuss their views on COVID-19 vaccines 1/23

      Good news: the GBD supports COVID-19 vaccines. I was so pleased to hear Sunetra Gupta say “vaccines are amazing” & to hear her praise Britain’s wonderful vaccine roll-out. Jay Bhattacharya discussed the relief when his mom got the vaccine, a genuinely lovely moment 2/23

      In a famous interview last year, Prof Gupta said people under 65 shouldn’t be concerned about COVID-19. Compared to that advice (which I VERY strongly disagree with!), it was a relief hearing her praise vaccines in gushing terms. Thank you Prof Gupta 3/23https://youtu.be/KbLbHyC2URk

      BUT: I wish GBD had not been named science advisors to that awful PANDA anti-vaxx screed (it has been taken down). I wish it was not (a) tied with the anti-vaxx AIER (e.g. with AIER’s Naomi Wolf, anti-vaxxer in chief) & (b) promoting misinformation on vaccines (see below) 4/23

      The PANDA episode was damaging to GBD. GBD authors were named advisers to PANDA (https://www.pandata.org ) who pushed dangerous anti-vaxx BS. PANDA wrote: “there was no one for whom the benefit would outweigh the risks of these vaccines.” PANDA took it down after the outrage 5/23pic.twitter.com/fEgXp6Xmev

      By now, y’all have seen the horrific anti-vaxx nonsense pushed by Naomi Wolf (Twitter briefly suspended her). The GBD’s army of angry male troll followers tell me to "stop suggesting" GBD has any ties or links with Wolf. No ties at all! Nothing to see here! Not aligned! 6/23pic.twitter.com/ZmA5fAdiBm

      Now to the vaccine misinformation pushed by Jay Bhattacharya (cc @gorskon). He doubled down on it at the roundtable. I’ve discussed with immunologists who agree it’s misinformation. JB is pushing the idea that it’s HARMFUL & unethical to vaccinate people previously infected 7/

      See the misinformation in the editorial he wrote. It is NOT harmful, say vaccine experts, to give COVID-19 vaccines to people previously infected! Bhattacharya is pushing *misinformation*. If you have robust data proving harms in those previously infected, share it here! 8/23pic.twitter.com/qeajRnhWOR
