"You are neither a physician or a nurse. Please refrain from spreading disinformation regarding the vaccine."

Looks who's talking! You're the "doctor" of misinformation who went over the top insisting that there was no reason to begin antibiotic treatment for inhalation anthrax until after the symptoms appear!

Did you get your MD from Iatrogenic U?

Thanks for confirming the impression I was getting. I asked him a question on specifics. He went over the top with a personal slam and totally ignored the question. Again this morning on GMA a doctor who is an expert on public health and infectious diseases (no, not Snyderman) said the same thing I questioned Mr. McCoy about: We must weigh the risks of the vaccine (which include death) against the risks of an outbreak (still considered rare or unlikely).

My point was merely that we should get the vaccine in place so that we have options, but that we should be weighing those options before we act precipitously. Mr. McCoy didn't like me questioning his opinion, I guess. For someone who admits he's a "young" doctor, he sure seems to value his own experience above those who have had more experience and are in a position to be getting more data than he has access to. I find that a troublesome attitude for a physician.
