DISINFORMATION ALERT Athletes were experiencing cardiac arrest BEFORE the vaccine to the point that there are entire sections in Cardio textbooks. Did she show that the rate was diff for vaxxed? Perhaps being an athlete is a dangerous occupation. Why are antivaxxers so stupid? https://t.co/qqNyi1AfqO — PolitiTweet.org

@SamirTabar You are clueless about medical error, using naive analogies. Medicine makes mistakes, Quacks make orders of magnitude worse. Imbecile. — PolitiTweet.org

@SamirTabar Imagine positioning yourself as a human being and letting psychopath kill people by giving them fake advice on drugs. Think just a little before posting empty labels. — PolitiTweet.org

Refrigeration has trade-offs. Everything, as a rule, has trade-offs. It is behind the increase of saturated fats (meats & bovine dairy) in the consumption of Mediterraneans. Olive oil requires no refrigeration. — PolitiTweet.org

Explaining why *conspiracy theorists* are not necessarily bad for society (they are sometimes right), just don't let them kill people with their stupidity during a pandemic.

Note 1: A reminder that Von Mises and Hayek were not against the state like today's "libertarians". They just wanted the state outside of economic life. My idea of the state: it is for tail risks, s.a. wars, pandemics, safety, etc. (exactly as Hayek phrased it). Like medication. — PolitiTweet.org

I fail to understand why "libertarians" who complain about banning Covid disinformation quacks on social media on grounds of "free speech", don't complain as loudly about laws that require a *license* to practice medicine, and give medical advice, even verbally. #Idiots — PolitiTweet.org

I fail to understand why libertarians who complain about banning Covid disinformation quacks on social media on grounds of "free speech", don't also complain about laws that require someone to be *licensed* to practice medicine, and give medical advice, even verbally. #Idiots — PolitiTweet.org

Airlines are irresponsibly lobbying against testing passengers from China. Test are the most effective measure & they outperform all others, beat lockdowns. They have some the effect of quarantines. Rule: in a network, you need to prevent multiplicative effects from multiplying! — PolitiTweet.org
