He’s also publicly railed against what he claims is a campaign against drugs like fluvoxamine and ivermectin. And, according to three members of CETF’s scientific advisory board, he put pressure on them to promote fluvoxamine for clinical use without conclusive data that it worked for covid.
More recently, he’s adopted extremist positions on covid vaccines, which he alleges are “toxic.” He has claimed that one in 1,000 people who have received mRNA vaccines have died as a result, and even claimed the vaccines “kill more people than they save” at an FDA public forum, which was first reported by the Daily Beast.
As Kirsch has gone deeper into the anti-vaccine scene, many professional associates have increasingly distanced themselves from him. In May, all 12 members of CETF’s scientific advisory board resigned, citing his alarming dangerous claims and erratic behavior. Over the summer, the conflict reached his most recent startup, M10. Its board told him that if he wanted to remain part of the company he would have to stop making public anti-vaccine statements. In September, he resigned as CEO and gave up his board seat.
So how did a man once intent on furthering science become a source of misinformation that undermines the very research he funded?

What is Truth?Other people have asked that question while doing the wrong thing, too. Interesting company you are keeping there.
Don't worry, he won't repeat the mistake of the surgeons who persecuted Semmelweis, he washed his hands...

These are real tweets, BTW.
I verified them, and they're all archived.
When someone called one of them on it, she played the "Muh Science" card - even though she's just a nurse.
Nurses ain't scientists.

Thanks posting and adding to the conversation.
Only one thing I’d like to point out……..
“David Chase :” He has claimed that one in 1,000 people who have received mRNA vaccines have died as a result, and even claimed the vaccines “kill more people than they save”
at an FDA public forum, which was first reported by the Daily Beast.” “
I did Not write the article.
I posted it but don’t deserve any credit for its content.
I assure you, “MIT Technology” would place me at the very last of a long list to write for them.
A Bucket of KFC chicken bones would beat me out on such a list.
(I’m not against using ivermectin for mild early stage Covid. If infection sets in however, more aggressive treatment maybe required.)
Thanks for commenting.

“ You mouth platitudes about not wanting to censor people, while ridiculing those far more qualified than you as members of a cult, and publish articles trying to besmirch the reputation of others far more informed than you.”

Such brilliant outstanding members of the Scientific Community are unable to deal with one challenging their theories?
Must not be very strong theories……….
Oh, ridicule……..yet here you are ridiculing me.
Hypocrite much?
To: David Chase
You’re the hypocrite, as my earlier post explained.
And your response to me is a textbook case of Vox Day’s saying:
“SJWs always *project*.”

Oh please - you’re the one worshipping stone the alter of Scientism.
You don’t even understand the concept and don’t even realize you’re worshipping authoritarianism.

I did not invoke or inject any Religion into the thread.
Go look…….go on.
I replied to the comments attacking me using Religion as a weapon because I don’t subscribe to their belief regarding vaccines.
That. Is. A. Cult.
Why so mad?
You should try Yoga. Or some relaxation techniques.
No need to be angry and emotional.

“ With the Covid vaccines though they’re protected from liability.”

True under the Emergency Use Order.
However, the CEOs and top Officers of the manufacturers are immune/except from Criminal Jeopardy.
They can be arrested and prosecuted for crimes pertaining to the operations of the Company and or products.
If I was a CEO, I’d rather the Company be on the hook and not me.
I’d rather have the Company pay out millions and millions and I stay out of prison and avoid fines.
But that’s just me…….
Also, indeed, Fauci has done so much harm in so many ways.
Every time there’s a new low for him, I’m amazed he hasn’t resigned and retired.

It's monday so we have a troll trying to pretend there is no 'truth' and that more than just the CCP talking points are 'accepted' beliefs.
THe offer is now 10 million dollars for the NIH/CDC/Fauci/FDA to debate Kirsch's team on the evidence. Initially the offer was 1 million dollars.
The 'establishment' running the Plandemic can't refute the data Kirsch's team put forward. The FDA Advisor panel was ovewhelmed by the evidence he presented and, at the conclusion of the hearing to review it, refused to recommend 'boosters'. So Walensky came along after the hearing and over ruled them to keep the CCP biowarfare effort in motion.
SO now your side is subjecting Kirsch to the combined blast of the CCP's weaponry. He's over the target and tacking flack for telling the truth and persisting in asking the NIH, CDC, FDA, Fauci in telling the truth which is a direct attack on your leaders.

More recently, he’s adopted extremist positions on covid vaccines, which he alleges are “toxic.” How is pointing out the obvious an 'extremist position'? This is just another derp state propaganda piece, Chase, of which you seem to be so fond.
Perusing your comments, I see that you post this scurrilous pack of government/pharma lies (hit piece), intended to silence a good man, and then daintily claim that you're not part of that attempt.
Can't have it both ways, sidewinder. You need to wear two masks. One for each of your faces.

It’s comments like that which lead people to view the Anti-Vaccine folks as part of a religion mixture……..a cult. Fascinating comment.
You do realize that to buy into the covid/vax psyop is to behave in a cult-like mannah. The cult leader, Fauci, speaks, and the minions obey, like a pack of dead-eyed zombies.
Then they go door to door like a pack of bicycle riding Jehovah's Witnesses asking people if they've heard the good word, and 'hey, where's your mask?'.
They don the cult's uniform to make sure they fit in and aren't sent from the tribe into the wilderness. Next thing you know, you got the 'children of the corn'. Or in this case, 'the children of the vax'.
The members of the vax cult will hear no arguments against their beliefs. No evidence, facts, or truth can penetrate the brainwashing. No intervention can save them. The cult owns them, body, mind, and soul.
And sometimes, they like to point at the real people and accuse THEM of being in a cult. These are the most lost of them all.
The cult of the human rabbits.
