    This is how antivax chiropractors think. A study fails to show harm from vaccines, and reflexively he thinks it MUST be wrong. Instead of accepting the possibility that its findings MIGHT be correct, he seeks to look for flaws that will let hm dismiss the study's results. 1/https://twitter.com/DrMichaelMaster/status/971407951335493632 …

    In my practice, 90% of kids having received scheduled vaccines are perpetually sick w/chronic ear infxns, URIs & allergies, etc. Yet, >95% kids w/out a single vaccine=>optimal health. I know it’s anecdotal,but something’s askew w/this study. Will look further into design/methods

        He's also almost certainly suffering from a major case of confirmation bias, in which he is more likely to remember cases that reinforce his antivaccine views and forget ones that do not. 2/

        Of course, antivaccine views are a real problem among alternative medicine practitioners, particularly chiropractors and naturopaths, among whom antivaccine views are much more common than pro-vaccine, pro-science views. 3/

        How much more disgusting can a person be than a chiro who is also antivax? Like you want to exploit people for money if they don’t die first

        Well, I am beginning to think that this is the Darwin Award at work. Unfortunately, these award winners harm the rest of us.

        Shouldn’t this field be referred to as “neuro chiropractor” rather than the other way around? @anish_koka

        I’m still haunted by a chiropractor coming to talk to my kids high school re concussion management. I was shocked. It was an infomercial for his own practice. A neurologist would’ve been a no brainer-pun intended.

        @DrMichaelMaster doesn’t have training&skills necessary to review scientific studies.He’s posting his opinions using “Dr” to make them sound valid. His intentions may be good, yet he’s just a chiropractor allowed to call himself “Dr” 2/2 a deplorable legislative gap. Sad!

        Sounds like confounding: kids must be #vaccinated to go to school. Kids who go to school are more likely to catch illnesses. It’s not the #vaccines.
