Caulfield: Your Overly Brief Social Media Posts Are Sometimes Dangerous
Dr. Byram W. Bridle
Mar 7, 2024

*** begin quote ***

Wow, I have responded to some public requests to address questions about social media posts made by Canadian ‘misinformation’ ‘expert’ Timothy Caulfield, and now I find myself flooded with more requests. And I can’t help but respond to yet another one because the amount of potential harm to the public is too great.

*** and ***

These many nuances place the overtly short and simple comments in the X post into a much more appropriate context, don’t they?

The most important message to all readers: do not take the study that was indirectly referred to in Caulfield’s post, nor the post itself as evidence of safety or effectiveness of COVID-19 shots.

*** end quote ***

This expert really puts Timothy Caulfield in his place as a  “misinformation expert” in a long precision point but point critique.

When I read the reporting on the 217 vaxer, I dismissed it as a “mentally ill” individual.  

And, when the media tried to use it as an exemplar of anything but mental illness, I thought “agenda driven reporting”.

But, when I read point by point critique Dr. Byram W. Bridle, I was impressed that there was a fellow who no only knew his stuff but could write it in a way that even a fat old white guy retired injineer could understand it.

In short, as Michael Malice says: ““… factual but not truthful.” — Michael Malice @michaelmalice.

There a lot of factoids pitched in the tweet and follow up stories, but the truth is in the critique.

In short, don’t get your medical facts from Social Media.

Unless you too are “mentally ill” with a death wish.

Argh!
