Blazing Reader,
Peter Hotez says anti-vaxxers are a lethal force that must be dealt with by the military. In a recent interview, he calls on Homeland Security, the United Nations and NATO to combat "anti-vaccine aggression." Here's what he says:
"This is a security problem because it's no longer a theoretical construct or some arcane academic exercise. 200,000 Americans died because of anti-vaccine aggression, anti-science aggression. And so this is now a lethal force."
He's also muddying the meaning of words. Lethal means to cause death. In his own model, a virus is what causes death and vaccines stop it. Hence, even if vaccines did prevent death, someone discouraging their use would not be causing death, but simply not preventing it.
You can hear more of Hotez's illogical and unscientific double-speak in this brief interview:
Stay sane & read great books,
