Dont call it a debate. Call it an open forum discussion. Can science not be discussed among individuals?

"Science is based on experiment, on a willingness to challenge old dogma, on an openness to see the universe as it really is. Accordingly, science sometimes requires courage - at the very least the courage to question the conventional wisdom" -Carl Sagan

But this proposed debate would not be over the unsettled science but over the political conditions surrounding vaccine provision. This is a sociopolitical matter about scientific practice. The various COVID-19 vaccines have generated adverse outcomes that have been ignored by much of the medical establishment. This has undermined the trust relationship between the medical establishment and the individuals it serves. The medical establishments have brought this on themselves by avoiding truth-telling when it's inconvenient to tell the truth, by (in the USA) establishing principle-agent relationships with medical technology providers, insurers and pharmaceutical companies. Welcome to the real world.

We're literally begging you to explain this to us on a forum the general public respects as honest. So NOW you look even more dishonest to the very people you should be avidly reaching. No amount of excuse for this and no limit to the shame you should feel.

We can't discuss the merits or evidence behind scientific-sounding assertions by people claiming to represent The Science. That wouldn't be scientific.

Kennnedy would be doing you a favor by debating you, I think it would be a bad idea to give Hotez a platform and allow him to spread dangerous misinformation.

The problem with Dr. Hotez is, he's been wrong on everything. If you, as an MD/PhD doctor can't mop the floor with a bunch of non-doctors in a debate on a medical topic you are dead wrong on the topic. If you refuse to debate, you KNOW you're wrong. It's not "politically-motivated, Dr. Hotez. It's science-motivated. We're sick of the so-called experts being wrong about everything and refusing to debate.

I feel for Dr Hotez. If you're an expert in a field, and are asked to debate someone who clearly isn't (and in fact has holds heavily discredited beliefs on a closely related subject), and the moderator of that debate has a dog in the race on the side of the non-expert, with the potential that losing the debate meaning a core audience of millions being influenced into believing the wrong thing and having wide-reaching negative impacts on public health, then you'd almost be a fool to do it. That anyone places any trust in debate is staggering. The winners aren't the holders of the truth, it's whoever is the most compelling.

I admire/appreciate Dr. Peter Hotez's intelligence, knowledge and dedication to improving and protecting human health. Those attacking science in this snake oil salesman way, especially when it leads to confusion/disinformation that causes more illness and death do not deserve to have their platforms amplified or dignified.

thanks, todd, for having a pandemic hero on. dr hotez has done so much for the u.s., and, frankly, the world. and to those who are denying reality, and offering only ridiculous notions instead of real medicine, i know you are, but what am i 😂.
