@PeterHotez Reported. So sorry you have to deal with this every day. If it's any consolation, you inspire me to keep going. When I feel like giving up and I start to feel sorry for myself, I think of what u have to deal with and I draw inspiration from your example. Thank you for being you.

Many will endure hardships. For me (and committed colleagues), it means the struggle to defend science + counter antiscience forces becomes more complicated/daunting. This time we’ll need better support from the societies, college presidents, elected leaders who care. Tough times

There is a lot of misinformation circulating about #mpox. Your health is precious. Only seek health advice from credible sources including your doctor, WHO or your local health authority. Check the FAQs to know who is at risk & how to protect yourself: bit.ly/3AvAOwf

Yesterday I shared this piece by me & 40 colleagues on the harms of the “lab leak” hypothesis inflicts on science & scientists. I’m not finished talking about it. The origins “debate” has consumed my life for >4 years & I want to talk personally about the damage it has caused.

“What is now happening to virology is a stark demonstration of what is happening to all of science. It will come to affect every aspect of science in a negative and possibly a dangerous way, as has already happened with climate science.” -colleagues & me journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jv…

@yousitonmyspot We knew this was true. We were neutralized on social media when we said Sinovac worked just fine. So many people could have been saved if vaxxed earlier but they opted to wait for American vaccines. These guys have a lot of blood on their hands. youtu.be/A394CpcxkiA?fe…

In 2021 the antivaccine disinformation machine went into overdrive in time for the delta wave. It was deliberate, predatory, organized by half-dozen or so elected members of U.S. Congress amplified by Fox News and podcasters. It caused the needless deaths of 200,000 Americans
World Health Organization (WHO)@WHO

#COVID19 ranked among the top 3 leading causes of death globally in 2020 and 2021, responsible for 13 million lives lost. In most regions of the world, it was among the top 5 causes of death. In the Americas, it was the number 1 cause of death. 📊 bit.ly/4aEB74
