Dr. Offitt, I’ll miss your frequent contributions but I’m extremely thankful that you’re taking a break! I hope you’ll find your break as restorative as you had hoped.

Dr. Offit: Thank you for putting yourself out there. Those of us who do not agree with you on some important issues appreciate it very much. When you come back, please make a point of responding to comments made by serious dissenters. The world of science needs it and the world more generally deserves it. Enjoy your break!

😉 Enjoy “the break.” A love of writing and passion for truth in medicine will pull you back in.

Enjoy your time off. I hope you get some time to relax before the hustle and bustle (and sniffles) of the holiday season.

In case you check these comments, here is a little "light reading" and more validation in the ongoing struggle against RFK Jr vaccine malpractice:
