Francis Collins, the former director of the National Institutes of Health, has faced criticism from various individuals, including Alex Berenson, for his handling of Covid control measures. Berenson and others have called out James Surowiecki and media for their support of lockdowns and school closures, citing instances where their predictions were proven wrong. Additionally, VPrasadMDMPH has expressed skepticism about Collins' honesty in a recent interview, particularly regarding masking, lockdowns, and school closures.
I watched the full Francis Collins interview about masking, lockdowns, school closure, Great Barrington Declaration and what he got wrong, and frankly he is still not completely honest @DrJBhattacharya @MartinKulldorff I break down the arguments https://t.co/gSBSkELWm0
It seemed OBVIOUS to much of the media and ruling class that we ought to defer our policymaking to the infectious disease experts. This was a grave, grave error, and Francis Collins explained why. https://t.co/Q8Xmoqfmbf https://t.co/fSz2hXJqvI
Lol, this is @JamesSurowiecki calling for “open” schools in Sept 2020. Karen, why don’t you just admit you freaked out over nothing? The truth is worth a thousand therapy sessions https://t.co/Vvp04hlTz2
Remember when @JamesSurowiecki claimed that everyone in Texas would die from covid because they weren’t locked down anymore? This was not in 2020, but in 2021, nearly a year after Texas was first shut down, and many months after the “vaccines” were made available. https://t.co/eNalUDNNLL
Hey @JamesSurowiecki, now that Francis Collins has admitted I was right and Covid control measures were disastrous, will you? https://t.co/bP7D94zUWp
