It has been four years since the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Hotez talked with Houston Matters about where we are now, and could the world see another pandemic in the future. (Spoiler alert: yes.)

I was back on the Truth Unrestricted podcast to follow up our discussion about Fandom with the dark side, prompted by Joe Rogan/RFK Jr. fans harassing Dr. Peter Hotez. We also talk about Rush’s “Limelight,” Eminem, Taylor Swift, & more!

"It is largely a phenomenon of the modern Republican party and its reactionary allies, but not exclusively. It can be seen in our haphazard response to the climate crisis but also in a broad assault on data, expertise, and knowledge. This overall, general attack on science as a whole is a threat to our national security, health, and welfare."

"When historians look back to analyze this era's toxic irrationality, they may well focus on the anti-vaccine movement.

How tragic that we have to stand up and defend one of the most successful health innovations in the history of our species. ...

Science is under siege from powerful players in American politics, business, and culture."

~ Dan Rather and Elliot Kirschner

Noah Berlatsky explains what the right is doing in trying to bully Peter Hotez to "debate" conspiracy theorist RFK:

“'Debate me' has become a bad faith propaganda tool for the right, designed to legitimize lies and target opponents for harassment. It’s ripped from the right-wing 'free speech' playbook, which demands that bad actors deserve access to every platform and every audience — or else."

It makes no more sense for someone like #PeterHotez to debate #RFKJr than it would be for them to debate Charles Manson -- the primary difference being that RFK Jr has been a much more effective mass murderer.

#PeterHotez is right not to debate #RFKJr. 9 years ago, John Oliver explained why. Back then, the subject was #ClimateChange, but the principle is the same: https://youtu.be/cjuGCJJUGsg

Es terrorífico que Elon Musk eche gasolina al fuego de los conspiranoicos #antivacunas acusando a un científico de tener miedo de debatir... con el resultado de que este fin de semana un pirado ha ido a acosar al Dr Hotez a su misma casa.

Qué casa de locos es Twitter.

We also talked about how certain states have terrible legislation—like Texas—but we have to remember that every state with bigoted legislation still has good people in that state fighting for the rights of people targeted by that legislation. So while we can be angry at the government of Texas, we don’t write off all Texans.
