Cont: Corona Virus Conspiracy Theories Part V

Oh my word!

I already posted this in the Weinstein Brothers thread, but this probably fits in well here.

Bret Weinstein, some ivermectin enthusiasts, and straight up anti-vax people, RFK Jr and Del Bigtree are going to be at some Quackfest in Bath, UK. I would imagine that some of them, particularly Bret Weinstein, are going to be Zooming in rather than attending in person.

In fact, I would hope that some people such as RFK Jr would not even be allowed to enter the UK to spread their BS.

Also joining in... Dr John Campbell. Anyone who still doubts he is a total quack at this point are never going to be persuaded.

These grifters have basically metastasized into the 9/11 Truth Movement of the age.

A paper on the potential use of ivermectin to treat Covid-19 has been retracted for a litany of flaws, joining at least 10 other articles on the therapy some liked to promote without evidence to fall.

The article was part of a special issue of Toxicology Reports on Covid-19 that has received an expression of concern; six of the eight articles still have EoCs. Two, including one “Why are we vaccinating children against COVID-19?,” have now been retracted.
 
McCullough is a puzzle

Hi angrysoba,

Dr. Peter McCullough is the one that I don't understand. I have not seen any indication that he is profiting from his...unorthodox...position. BTW your in-box is full.

The Great Barrington Declaration people Jay Battacharya and Martin Kulldorff are apparently now sharing stages with.... Steve Kirsch!

You remember Steve Kirsch? Apparently famous for inventing the optical mouose and has since become a rabid anti-vaxxer who claims vaccines make the heads explode of fetuses of pregnant women.

They are sitting there in front of a PPT screen saying "vaccines are killing more people than they save" (500,000 people according to Kirsch).

WTAF!

Misinformation

Concerning misinformation during the pandemic (and misinformation more generally), In the Pipeline's Derek Lowe wrote, "They have been spun up to their current high RPM, as far as I can tell, by repeated consumption of that ******** that Bergstrom refers to. People send me links to podcasts and YouTube videos and slide presentations that are just fiestas of misunderstandings, nonsense, and outright lies, but they're presented with a huge amount of detail in confident, passionate tones by people who sound completely committed to the cause. I can easily see where people who have not spent years in medicine, biology, chemistry and such fields would be convinced that they are truly on to the truth when they see this stuff, and after the fourth, fifteenth, or fifty-third exposure to it they're even more so."

Derek Lowe is a medicinal chemist who has written a number of blog entries on this virus, the vaccines, and the antiviral compounds used to treat this virus. The connection to conspiracy theory thinking becomes a bit clearer in the last paragraph of this interesting essay.
 
Todd Callender and Ron Johnson on the vaccine and AIDS

Physician Allison Neitzel wrote, "At the core of the issue is that this ongoing spread of COVID disinformation from politicians, doctors, lawyers, and others with a significant following continues to rock public health to the utmost degree. We must fight to close this flooding disinformation pipeline before it drowns us."

She was responding to anti-fax lawyer Todd Callender's claim that the vaccine causes AIDS as part of an interview with Senator Ron Johnson (a Republican of the State of Wisconsin) whose position is (to put it extremely charitably) unclear. I probably have heard this flagrantly false claim before, but it still shocked me to read this. So, according to this conspiracy theory, Pfizer and Moderna want to get everyone sick with AIDS? To sell them medications for it? The mind reels.

Very dismal stuff. The internet is great and all. I'm sure that the net benefits outweigh the downsides. But the spread of misinformation via the internet is just atrocious. So much stuff that is clearly utter bollocks is believed by a lot of people these days, from Flat Earth to Q to all manner of other lies.

Kirsch was a hydroxychloroquine crank too.
 
Well, it seems that the consensus view is that this monkey pox is actually Shingles caused by the coronavirus vaccine.
