So. What was wrong with the video?
You've said you don't like her research and that you think she's disrespected you colleagues, but no discussion of what's wrong with the video?
Is it because it's done by a lady? Who studies icky lady stuff that no one cares about?
Or what?
@HGessling
What parents are you talking about?
I guarantee you that there are more parents that regret their kids getting covid unvaccinated than regret giving the vaccines
It's your damn job as doctor (if that MD stands for something other than margarine delivery) to educate parents.

If you're a healthcare worker it should be forced on you. If you work with kids it should be forced on you. If you work with the elderly it should be forced on you. Not that we should have to force you, it's a no brainer, but still, some people don't care

Not toxic. Some rare and generally mild myocarditis (at HUGELY lower rates than covid)
Risk/benefit isn't just positive, but absurdly positive.

12k for a used leaf that will pay 80% of its own loan in gas savings and keep reducing costs after that doesn't seem like rich people toys land

The key is that we need some milestone where we can decide that we're ready to get back to normal. Drop the masks, stop worrying. Time to decide that it's done. This seems reasonable.
@BadVaccineTakes
Also, strangely enough, the tiny flu season last year made it really hard to decide on what strains to include in this year's flu shot. Here's hoping they guessed right
@HGessling
I'm not saying that you're a liar.
I'm saying that you should regret that you're spreading vaccine hesitancy rather than working to get uptake higher.
Educate your patients rather than hurting them

They are vaccines.
They don't suppress the immune system.
They're not gene therapy because they can't affect your genes.
There is no truth to any word on your response

We need a video of that. As many people tossing as many balls as possible at that wall. Preferably a timelapse of a few hours. Done correctly it could be a game changer in debates.

Also making sure that people have health care and maternity/paternity leave and the kinds of supports that make having another child not a crushing financial blow. THAT'S how you reduce abortion (Oh, and IUDs for anyone who wants one and more male birth control)

How would a normal person listening to (for instance) Bob Malone on Rogan hear him as anything but credible?
You need specialized knowledge to see that he's distorting the truth. That's what a real journalist would do if they had a 3 hour conversation with him. Not let him blab.

Time travel has not been invented, but no vaccine has ever had side effects out past a few weeks, so the probability is incredibly high
And this is how you tell the difference between pseudoscience and science. With science there's always a new level lurking underneath what you know. Beware charismatic people bearing simple answers
Welp evidently there is interest in this so here's a thread. Strap in, it's not going to be brief (sorry). There's a lot of background to get through before anything I say starts making sense. 🧵
Telling people that kids and their families and their doctors should be trusted with determining their health care is a reason to be blocked lately. Interesting. What side of what issue am I advocating for?
This concern has pretty much already been debunked both by biodistribution studies and expression kinetics studies. That vast majority of the mRNA stays in the injection site or draining lymph nodes & no appreciable spike expression has been measured outside those tissues either.

It's been two years and 5 billion doses.
If they can transcribe we'd have seen it by now.
Even if they can, the vaccines are absurdly safe, so I don't know what changing the genes of one or two cells soon to be killed by the immune system might mean
@pimlius
@mattyglesias
But shouldn't we stop people from selling it as a cancer cure unless they can prove it works? That seems like table stakes for a reasonable free market
To a first approximation, if you know the name of a doctor that doesn't treat you or a close friend or family member, that person is a charlatan. I know of one common exception, but would entertain the idea of others

No clots associated with the mRNA vaccines.
And the point isn't to believe an MD. It's to believe the evidence.
And all the evidence is on the side of the vaccines
