Stanford Faculty Smear Professor Who Accurately Summarized Data On Masks



Open scientific discourse is especially critical during a public health crisis such as a pandemic. It is deeply troubling when scientists try to limit rather than engage in scientific debate.

Open scientific discourse is especially critical during a public health crisis such as a pandemic. Academics should be free to pursue knowledge wherever it may lead, without undue or unreasonable interference. It is deeply troubling when scientists try to limit rather than engage in scientific debate.

Last week, anonymous posters with the portrait of Stanford University Professor of Medicine Dr. Jay Bhattacharya were plastered on kiosks around the Stanford campus, linking him to COVID deaths in Florida. Even though cumulative age-adjusted COVID mortality is lower in Florida than in most other large states, these smears appeared.


Taking it one step further, the chair of Stanford’s epidemiology department, Professor Melissa Bondy, circulated a petition among faculty members demanding that the university president exercise his obligation “to clarify for the faculty the limits of public pronouncements when proclaiming on public health policy.”

The petitioners are upset that “several Stanford faculty members have publicly advocated for policies for others that are contrary to those the university has adopted” and that “these recommendations are disturbing and contrary to public health standards; they foster uncertainty and anxiety and put lives at risk.”

While insidiously not naming anyone, the petition explicitly targets Bhattacharya by quoting his answer to a question from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis about masks on children. He responded that “there is no high-quality evidence to support the assertion that masks stop the disease from spreading.” To deserve trust, scientists must be honest about what is and what is not known, and we agree with Bhattacharya.

Randomized trials provide the best available research evidence to inform health-care decisions and are considered the gold standard for determining intervention effects. But no randomized studies have shown that masks in children are effective. Instead, there are observational studies of uneven quality that reach conflicting conclusions.

For example...

  1. Anyone counting on a mask to be safe from getting the flu is a fucking idiot.

    3 weeks ago I met with my mechanic I had found up here and dropped my Titan off to replace the rear shocks. When I met with him he was hacking, sneezing and coughing pretty good. Neither of us had masks. So I didn’t hear from him to get an update on the truck and called. He’s in the hospital all loopy and tells me he has the Chinese flu. I told him to tell his doctor to give him ivermectin but he just blew that off. Just found out he died last week. That is a motherfucking crime that he died when a cheap remedy, around for 60 years, that won the Nobel Prize in 2015 and has been used literally billions of times with hardly any reported side effects is being avoided by our medical care people.

    My immune supplement regimen along with a monthly dose of ivermectin seems to be working fine. I mean I couldn't have had a closer encounter with an infected person, loaded with virus than a few weeks ago and nary a sniffle.

    My gal just had 2 friends taken to the hospital with symptoms of the flu and I told her to sneak in some ivermectin but once you have it you need a dose every 2 days for 3-4x. Such a sin, these Doctors(?) should be fucking shot.
