I’ve asked this very question of ##COVID19 minimizers/deniers advocating just letting the virus run rampant to achieve “natural herd immunity.” Why don’t you seek out COVID patients and spend an hour in a closed room with one of them without PPE? 1/https://twitter.com/JHowardBrainMD/status/1377989241775521799 …

Here’s a perfect example from June. Antivaxxer
@delbigtree urged his@HighWireTalk audience to “catch this cold” in order to achieve herd immunity faster and protect the vulnerable. 2/https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/antivaccine-leader-del-bigtree-on-covid-19-lets-catch-this-cold-why-antivaxxers-and-coronavirus-conspiracy-theorists-are-often-one-in-the-same/ …1 reply 4 retweets 16 likesShow this thread -
As an aside, I can’t help but point out that, while urging his audience to “catch”
#COVID19,@delbigtree engaged in some of the most egregious victim shaming I’ve ever seen, blaming people with serious comorbidities for having brought them on themselves by living bad lives. 3/1 reply 3 retweets 16 likesShow this thread -
Interestingly, I don’t think
@delbigtree ever actually caught#COVID19, and, to my knowledge, he’s never actually sought to catch it. 4/1 reply 3 retweets 15 likesShow this thread -
I mean,
@delbigtree could easily have gotten#COVID19 if he had wanted to. His audience is full of COVID deniers and antivaxxers. All he’d have to do is to ask audience members with COVID living in his area if he could come over and visit without PPE. He didn’t. 5/1 reply 3 retweets 20 likesShow this thread -
Funny thing that. For all his braggadocio,
@delbigtree appears never to have made even the slightest effort himself in 10 months to “catch that cold” and thereby contribute to her immunity against#COVID19. I wonder why. Hypocrisy? Fear? 6/2 replies 4 retweets 24 likesShow this thread -
Basically,
#COVID19 deniers like@delbigtree or@PhilWMagness, who claim the disease is not dangerous to the vast majority of people and advocate a herd immunity strategy, are full of
. Deep down, they’re afraid of COVID. And they should be! 7/3 replies 5 retweets 29 likesShow this thread -
