I wrote about the GOP-led House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which appears to be following a "road map" from the Heritage Foundation behind Project 2025.

Oncologist and full professor at @UCSFMedicine He's also a member of the kid-focused rebranding of the Great Barrington Declaration, the Urgency of Normal, and has argued exhaustively for mask RCTs during the pandemic. He's absolutely addicted to attention and it's dangerous.

Two guys who know nothing about medicine choose a new slogan that is a medical acronym for Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemia, which is not great.

My latest for @whowhatwhy on RFK Jr.'s - and the COVID era anti-vax movement's - ties to Steve Bannon Anti-science is part of the larger anti-truth of Bannon's fascism and it is incredibly dangerous.

Today's article is my third on the manufactured resurgence of the COVID-19 lab leak origin narrative that's been pushed by the GOP House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic and the Heritage Foundation recently. And now, Bhattacharya.

Furthermore, this past January Rogan and Bret Weinstein used his Spotify platform to target a physician over a fake vaccine tweet leading to a tidal wave of harassment against her. How many more people have to suffer for Rogan's ego?

I guess I find it a little strange that a hit piece would include the fact that I volunteered with kids in med school. Like, wow, what a bitch! And then an organization called Children's Health Defense would pick up this hit piece. Makes you wonder who is for the kids, huh?

With the calls for death threats being lobbed at doctors who advocate for vaccines getting renewed attention in light of the dog pile on Dr. Hotez, it is worth noting that a doctor has been killed over advocacy for healthcare issues made political:
