      Note the weasel wording/buzz words (“not opposed to #covidvaccines IN GENERAL”) that gives away the game. FLCCC is *clearly* antivax. It’s quite obvious from this statement. If this statement were the only thing I knew about FLCCC, I’d say, “Yep, they’re *definitely* antivax.” 1/https://twitter.com/grahamwalker/status/1425544343947931650 …

      ❗With the FLCCC's permission I'm including statements from them: 💉On Vaccines The FLCCC Alliance is NOT opposed to COVID-19 vaccinations in general, and furthermore, supports policies such as mask wearing and social distancing to prevent the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. 1/3

      So is this shtick about how “some of us are vaccinated.” Antivax mom groups used to say the same thing prepandemic. Antivax pediatricians would say, “Many of my patients are vaccinated.” 2/https://twitter.com/grahamwalker/status/1425544347592794115 …

      They go on to say that many but not all of the FLCCC's members are vaccinated, and some are using human-grade ivermectin to prevent Delta variant infection, and feel that the main problem here is lack of access to human ivermectin, and people are doing this out of desperation.

      Indeed, taking a “neutral” stance on #CovidVaccine like this while spreading fear of the vaccine based on pseudoscience, bad science, and conspiracy theories is a CLASSIC antivax ploy. I am not fooled. No one should be fooled. 3/https://twitter.com/grahamwalker/status/1425544348494532611 …

      I appreciate the FLCCC's willingness to engage with me and to at least find common ground that: 1) they are not opposed to vaccination and 2) people SHOULD NOT BE USING ANIMAL IVERMECTIN While I wish they'd take a firmly pro-vax (not neutral) stance, I'll take this for now.

      Before #COVID19 antivax doctors did the same sort of thing as @Covid19Critical when asked out as antivax, taking a similar studied “neutral” stance of “not recommending or discouraging vaccination,” all while demonizing vaccines elsewhere, which made their true views obvious. 4/

      When CALLED out as antivax.🤦🏻‍♂️ And here I thought I'd gotten through the thread without a single typo/autocorrect/predictive typing error.😬

      Why would a doctor be antivaccine? Seems like it's incompatible with being a competent physician

      It is. At Least, I’ve always thought so.

          do you know what is leading them to think this way? or at least some?
