If you promote false information that puts children in harm's way, you're not a vaccine skeptic. You're anti-vaccine. And if you deny a mountain of evidence that counters your views, you're a conspiracy theorist. via @thecut

@AaronSiriSG @CDCgov @US_FDA @RobertKennedyJr @nytimes @statnews @PeterHotez The purpose of placebos, which are immunologically inert, is to determine the effect of the vaccine. All vaccine trials meet that standard. @AaronSiriSG believes that only water or salt water are placebos because they “have no effect on living beings.” That’s absurd. Drink enough…

FDA vaccine advisory committee member Dr. Paul Offit says the US should be having mass vaccination events. “The federal government does need to step up their response to vaccination in the same way that they stepped up the response to making the vaccine,” he says.

An apology. It has come to my attention that some people were offended by my mention of Barron Trump as being on the autism spectrum on ZDoggMD. I have not examined Barron Trump and should not have commented on the medical status of a minor child in public. I regret saying it.
