| 1627468307686105088 | @EdmundKudzayi your claims are false for many reasons, and my statement is correct. https://t.co/su9pTNDbMm | 6 |
| 1625182849501630466 | @EdmundKudzayi That study is EXACTLY what I'm talking about, actually. Also, since antivaxxers are always all about the COIs of authors, you do know that Tom Jefferson writes for the anti-mask Brownstone Institute, right? He's not neutral. https://t.co/hx5Co86QZv | 4 |
| 1625184079112212480 | @EdmundKudzayi I did engage with your first reply, which is not hidden. The rest were just rants and standard antivax fare, which were growing tiresome. | 3 |
| 1625184418875977728 | @EdmundKudzayi You never replied, for instance, to my pointing out that the lead author of the mask systematic review and meta-analysis is not neutral, writes for a right-wing #COVID19-minimizing website, and has a long history of flirting with antivaxxers, but, hey, you do you. | 2 |
| 1625183270685253632 | @EdmundKudzayi Do you also know that Tom Jefferson has a history of bad takes on vaccines? He even appeared on the podcast of quack and antivaxxer Gary Null a full ten years ago! https://t.co/IEPA95mXxH | 2 |
| 1625183484158574593 | @EdmundKudzayi In fact, Tom Jefferson is a great example of how EBM fundamentalism can lead to some seriously dubious conclusions in the middle of a pandemic. I should write a post about him, as I haven't discussed him in several years. | 2 |
| 1627505111244177408 | When @EdmundKudzayi cannot reply to me - he fire hoses - beware of those that gish gallop and fire hose. He is unable to discuss any of this in any depth. https://t.co/RvEoLhVDSd | 2 |
| 1625079440030986241 | https://t.co/3ct90ywQVG @thecoastguy @GBNEWS @EdmundKudzayi Until such time as journalists actively expose its own rogues, the industry will unfortunately continue to lack credibility with the public. | 2 |
| 1626536210754682881 | @EdmundKudzayi @woznica_woznic1 @gorskon Re: "It has become a religion of sorts, and the questions are like heresies piercing dearly held beliefs. The insults are the stones, intended to strike and cause fatal injury to the heretic lol." Asinine rhetoric reminiscent of HIV/AIDS denialists. https://t.co/qyaUDKxPe7 https://t.co/4FZ8ulY5Wz | 2 |
| 1626376974724636673 | @EdmundKudzayi @Kangerine @gorskon @chrisotherwise @woznica_woznic1 Stop trolling. https://t.co/ITa5WWMZlZ "vaccination has been shown to reduce the incidence of infection" https://t.co/eNEzTDZy0q https://t.co/fJKyufleZl https://t.co/0py2Zwq08b https://t.co/KuZx3moh1S https://t.co/be1H386QvO https://t.co/VwyOLaP2EV https://t.co/6sa2edX6al https://t.co/KlAbZczUkQ | 1 |

| 1626323538155298816 | @EdmundKudzayi I know exactly what you're going to post and it's nonsense published by anti-vaxxers to give you these talking points to spew all over the internet. I hope that helped! | 49 |

| 1625849076758597633 | @EdmundKudzayi @woznica_woznic1 @gorskon Of course it doesn't stop infection etc - any more than a seatbelt prevents accidents or death 100%. Getting bored of seeing this point repeatedly raised & refuted. It substantially reduces the likelihood of any of those things happening | 17 |
| 1625850925968662533 | @chrisotherwise @EdmundKudzayi @woznica_woznic1 Yep. It's pure Nirvana fallacy. To antivaxxers, if a vaccine is not 100% effective, it doesn't work, and if it's not 100% absolutely safe, it's toxic deadly sludge. | 15 |
| 1626337112458166272 | @EdmundKudzayi NNV is not a useful calculation, 1 in 800 is not f from the government website | 12 |
| 1626329923014234113 | @EdmundKudzayi The 1/800 is not from the government website | 12 |
