Hotez about anti-vaccine activists

Dr. Peter Hotez: "You see this a lot with some of the lead anti-vaccine activists who really don't understand the science. I see it a lot now with some of the contrarian intellectuals or pseudo intellectuals even have medical degrees. If you notice they don't have any expertise in infectious diseases, virology or vaccine. They usually come from other fields...they're surgeons, they're radiologists, they're something else and then they overreach...And then when you start sounding too dogmatic they've even come up with a new term Neil...they say I'm practicing scientism. It's kind of like a fusion of religion and science. It's all BS."
