THE COVID-19 “VACCINE HOLOCAUST”: THE LATEST ANTIVACCINE Months before emergency use authorizations (EUAs) were granted by the FDA for vaccines against COVID-19, starting with the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and then continuing with the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson (J&J) vaccines, those of us who’ve been following and trying to counter the antivaccine movement predicted that antivaxxers would publicize and weaponize reports of death and SCIENCE-BASED MEDICINEABOUT SBMREFERENCERECENT COMMENTSACUPUNCTURECHIROPRACTICHOMEOPATHY The standard textbook used in many schools of osteopathic medicine includes a lamentable chapter on cranial manipulation.

COVID Morbidity. There is a known bias toward oversimplification. We like to distill complex situations down to a number, or a simple dichotomy. It allows us to mentally manage a complex world. The risk, of course, is that important details will be lost. In medicine that bias is hopefully beaten out of us by training and experience.THE NEXT PANDEMIC
The Next Pandemic. We are just about at a year for the COVID-19 pandemic. After a year COVID has infected more than 115 million people and caused over 2.5 million deaths, with over half a million in the US alone. Pandemic fatigue has definitely set in, but with the rollout of various vaccines we can also see the light at the end of the tunnel. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO JOHN IOANNIDIS? It gets worse: When the Stanford team — Drs. Jayanta Bhattacharya, John Ioannidis and Eran Bendavid — released the first draft of their Santa Clara County-based preprint, the news was stunning.

Lipid nanoparticles are small spherical particles made of lipids into which various “payloads” (in the case of the COVID-19 vaccines, mRNA encoding the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein) can be introduced. These particles are generally less than 100 nm in diameter and made up of—you guessed it—lipids. CAN MRNA-BASED COVID-19 VACCINES CAUSE PRION DISEASE OR Classen’s claim that mRNA vaccines can cause prion disease leading to neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease is just another example of this.

ANTIVAXXERS LAUNCH A PREEMPTIVE DISINFORMATION WAR AGAINST A COVID-19 VACCINE THAT DOESN’T YET EXIST We don’t yet have a vaccine against COVID-19, but that hasn’t stopped the antivaccine movement from launching a preemptive disinformation war on social media against it. Unfortunately, as a recent study demonstrates, on Facebook at least, they have been so successful that it is possible that antivaccine messaging will surpass pro-vaccine messaging on FB within a decade.David Gorski

MEDICAL CONSPIRACY THEORIES AND COVID-19 The COVID-19 pandemic has spawned almost innumerable conspiracy theories, and conspiracists like the antivaccine movement have joined forces with COVID-19 conspiracy theorists. To combat the proliferation of pseudoscience rooted in conspiracy theories, it is useful to step back and examine the nature of conspiracy theories, including ones that are not medical, even ones like QAnon. Critical thinking is the key to inoculating...David Gorski

_PLANDEMIC_: JUDY MIKOVITS AND THE MOTHER OF ALL COVID-19 CONSPIRACYTHEORIES
Judy Mikovits is a disgraced scientist who published a paper claiming that a retrovirus called XMRV causes chronic fatigue syndrome, results that other investigators were unable to replicate. Since then, she's been a regular on the antivaccine circuit, but now she's been reborn as a "Fire Fauci" COVID-19 conspiracy theorist. Sadly, it worked. Her book is #1 on Amazon.David Gorski
