I’ve got to get something off my chest, so buckle up for an overdue rant.
I can’t begin to describe the disdain and contempt I have for highly-credentialed MD’s with large platforms who are suddenly jumping on Team Reality about COVID. /1

- I had an appointment for a bone scan today and they handed me a mask. I said, “I’m not playing this game anymore” and walked out. I’m so sick of this “just following orders” BS. Time to take a stand and get back to normal.
- Replying to @lee_ritzI’m so glad you finally “discovered” natural immunity. Could you have opened your mouths before ppl lost their livelihoods? Or when regular MD’s were being castigated as being conspiracy theorists for discussing something that was completely noncontroversial prior to 2020? /2
- Replying to @lee_ritzMaybe now you can admit that denying NI has caused massive distrust of all health officials. You knew you were lying, we knew you were lying, and it makes us wonder what else you’ve lied about. Congrats, you’ve actually birthed a new generation of true anti-vaxxers. /3
- Replying to @lee_ritzIt will be because the powers that be finally pushed parents too far and the mama bears are waking up to the devastation that’s been done to their children. To these people, I say thank you. To the silent physicians, I say shame on you. /21
- Replying to @lee_ritzSpeaking of things that all MD’s knew to be true prior to 2020, can we discuss the uselessness of cloth masks for respiratory viruses? Can you see how much damage has been done, especially to children, because of your acquiescence to this nonsense? /4
- Replying to @lee_ritzYou have forced us to gaslight ourselves by engaging in BS COVID theatre like taking the mask on and off between bites and sips on an airplane. You don’t seem to care about the consequences. /5
- Replying to @lee_ritzYou can pat yourselves on the back for fostering mental illness in so many people. Our next generation will suffer greatly, but at least you didn’t have to go against the narrative./7
- Replying to @lee_ritzSpeaking of the narrative, you and your pals in the garbage media acted like Mean Girls sitting at the popular table, coordinating attacks (“devastating takedowns” you might even say) against scientists who actually did have courage and wisdom, like the authors of the GBD. /8
- Replying to @lee_ritzThe true believers are living lives of neurotic hypochondriasis, clutching hand sanitizer and wearing multiple masks at all times, even when in cars alone or outdoors. /6
- Replying to @lee_ritzGetting back to normal will be due to truckers and regular workers standing up tor our rights, rather than cowardly MD's speaking up in time. /20
- Replying to @lee_ritzMaybe someone could’ve criticized the whole “pandemic of the unvaccinated” narrative? Perhaps mandating a vaccine that doesn’t stop infection or transmission doesn’t make that much sense? /11
- Replying to @lee_ritzTo the OB/GYN’s who pressured young pregnant moms to take the vaxx, even when they were very reluctant to, I hope you’re proud of yourselves. YOU know for certain there will be no long-term side effects. Oh, and how exactly do you know this? /14
- Replying to @lee_ritzYou never uttered a peep of concern when fellow MD's with different opinions were silenced, censored or terminated. When has this ever been acceptable in medicine? Providing HC is nuanced and individualized. We learn from each other, but you can be proud of preventing that. /9
