@MaryBowdenMD @TexasChildrens A surgeon who thinks anoxic brain injury and TBI are remotely similar pathologies? Yikes.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@RhondaGBolt @delbigtree @BrianHookerPhD So? Border crossing is border crossing.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@DrNeilStone @ASMicrobiology Highly recommend the International Spy Museum while you're in town.

@SenBillCassidy YOU VOTED TO APPROVE HIM! You gave a floor speech supporting his appointment! None of his anti-vax beliefs were a secret before the vote.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@MaryBowdenMD @PlasSusan @TexasChildrens Because some organs have a higher anoxia tolerance than the brain, meaning some of those organs may very well still be able to save someone's life.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@DanNord11 @DrNeilStone Why does ivermectin earning a Nobel for it's anti-parasitic (and thus, life-saving) effects mean it works for viruses?

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@TampaDan And of course who could forget that part of Article II of the Constitution that spells out how many football players someone has to be able to name to run for elected office...

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@StateDept Really? Is that why the CDC is asking their employees to do unpaid shifts as airport screeners to replace the people who would normally do this but who have been fired?

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@accordingtokeri @DarleneAbear45 @MaryBowdenMD @RawlsMD What a coincidence - the person who has a book about a nonsense therapy also sells the nonsense therapy!

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@bodytalkman @DrNeilStone A scientists also questions claims that have no known viable mechanism and that have been refuted more than once by large studies.

@msPisCensored @DrNeilStone Dengue is a self-resolving viral infection. How do you know this isn't simply temporal bias, that your your symptoms would have started resolving around the same time whether you took ivermectin or not?

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@DrOzCMS @nickshirleyy This is such an embarrassing post for the administrator of CMS to make.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@McCulloughFund There are about 200,000 cases annually worldwide. Vaccines aren't only developed and sold for US medical needs.

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@MaryBowdenMD It's not hard to find. If you're in any way knowledgeable about Ebola response and management, you would know the ZMapp has been a therapy of interest since at least 2014/2015ish. Pretty well known in the ID community at large.

@uTobian When you're shown to be wrong, will you post a public apology?

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@SenRonJohnson @CBS @ABC @NBCNews @MSNOWNews @PBS @CNN If you're so confident about this, why aren't you reading their names on the floor of the Senate to enter it into the public record? Is it because you're worried about the slam dunk defamation suit they would file against you?

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@si02lvr @ValerieAnne1970 That's because the word is "Hippocratic".

[Matthew Pullen, MD @mfpullenmd]

@SenRonJohnson @CBS @ABC @NBCNews @MSNOWNews @PBS @CNN Wait, so you think that if the media doesn't report on something that the government has data on, then the data doesn't exist? Aren't YOU the government? And doesn't YOUR party control all three branches currently? Why would this be the fault of "the media"?
