1) I asked @Kevin_McKernan for his views on his @PanData19 colleague @RealJoelSmalley sharing conspiracy theories. Kevin kindly responded that @PanData19 "is a community of scientists that don't all agree." Then said "I don't play associative fallacy games."
2) Kevin likes to use this "associative fallacy", or "guilt by association", argument a lot. I'll highlight two occasions here.
When questioned on a Yeadon letter he co-authored, he referred to the vaccine as "sterilization... for an aggressive cold".

3) On an other occasion, he hit out at the John Snow Memorandum to "see how they take a dose of their same immature associative fallacy medicine" as he felt there was an attack on the GBD "as being some @aier libertarian think tank."
4) Problem is, the Great Barrington Declaration was written & signed at the @aier. Kevin's @PanData19 colleagues @NickHudsonCT & @stacey_rudin attest to this.
5) Here's screenshots from @aier's website. I think Kevin needs to look up what a "libertarian think tank" actually is. I'm guessing the @aier would be high up the list.
6) Referring back to my first tweet of this thread, (he hasn't responded yet), do "scientists", (such as Kevin, @ClareCraigPath, @RealJoelSmalley, et al) just agree to having themselves listed in groups with no knowledge of the other peoples' work?
