      Actually, reading Doshi’s #CovidVaccine piece in the context of his past body of work makes it worse, not better. He’s been downplaying vaccine efficacy based on bad arguments at least since the H1N1 pandemic of 2009-10. It’s his MO.

      What exactly are your contributions in this space? Transparency, data sharing, sponsorship bias? And your own financial COI declarations?

      I have no sponsors and no financial COIs in this space-or any other space, for that matter. Nice try at the pharma shill gambit, though.🙄 https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Shill_gambit …

      I meant scientific contributions, it was obvious. But also a rhetorical question, since google already told me you had none.

      To remind you, the criticism of the article in question was its problematic claims about #vaccines. Not any call for transparency. Dr. Gorski certainly has the credentials to call out vaccines misinformation.

      Super. Now please can I be untagged from this frankly boring, one-sided exchange with a very low information value and badly used capital letters? I am sure you can vent frustrations without clogging my feed. My point was that executing a researcher like Doshi is disingenuous.

      Nobody is “executing” anyone. Criticizing someone writing antivaccine articles is fair. You joined the thread, to remind you. You’re free to mute the conversation and/or the people.

      Really great job at sticking to your guns. I counted at least 5 times that she cast shade on Dr. Gorski, directly, as opposed to just reading the article. Which was quite well done. Her loss.

      I read the Doshi piece and can judge myself, as I said 10 times. I read other critical pieces. Dr. Gorski is not on my list. Preferences

      “Preferences” “I prefer to stick to my list of trusted academics, regardless of their problematic enabling of pseudoscience rather than read ANYTHING outside my bubble of confirmation bias. That makes me an evidence-based and thoughtful researcher.” Okay, then.

      This beautifully put take illustrates why you’re a professional journalist and I’m not.
