Precisely. With the vaccine-hesitant, I’m very careful and respectful However, it’s no quarter for antivax influencers and grifters who spread (and profit from) the disinformation that fuels vaccine hesitancy. bsky.app/profile/tara...
To be clear, there’s a big difference between criticizing the anti-vaccine movement & discrediting their influencers/leaders vs shaming vax-hesitant or quietly vax-refusing parents. The latter backfires; the former is essential. But SciComm folks often conflate them. Cc @ryanmarino.bsky.social

Yes, I’m talking about Vinay Prasad. In 2019, a few months before the pandemic, he told me that homeopathy, jade eggs, and antivax (for example) are such obvious nonsense that it’s a waste of my training to bother refuting them. Six years later, he’s a poster child for why it’s not a waste.
