We have now arrived at the "arresting judges" level of fascism.

Here is Jay speaking at an antivaxx conference in front of a slide that used Twitter survey data to claim COVID vaccines killed more than 500K people and helped fewer than 25K people.

For the past 5 years, immature UCSF professors spread misinformation and insulted those who tried to correct it. Until just now, when the consequences affected them for the first time. My latest for SBM. sciencebasedmedicine.org/ucsfapathy/
