The MeidasTouch Podcast
Meidas Health, Episode 7: Misinformation, MAHA, Measles, and the Future of Medicine (with Drs. Peter Hotez and Sapna Singh)

It's a totally made up term where if you're, you know, if you're busy seeing patients all day saying, Hmm, is that something I missed, the turbo cancer? And then, you know, the lipid nanoparticle will deliver its package of nucleic acid past the cell membrane into the cytoplasm, but it doesn't get into the nucleus. For that, you need electroporation. That's why we have no licensed DNA vaccines.

But most pediatricians are not going to have that information at their fingertips. And the fact that we have Even if some residual nucleic acid does get into the nucleus, we have proteins of our innate immune system that block incorporation of foreign nucleic acid into our genome. Otherwise, if we didn't have that, that's part of our innate immune system.

If we didn't have that, every time we ate a hamburger, we'd have cow DNA in our genome. And And then the likelihood that's going to happen next to an oncogen is even more remote. So it's total BS. But, you know, I mean, I have an MD and a PhD and think about biochemistry and cells all the time. But, you know, there's not...

one of the things I think would be helpful is that if we had, you know, an Uber website where the pediatrician or the primary care physician could go to it and cause, you know, these things tend to circulate, um, and amplify and go viral, um, in batches. So, you know, they, same stuff keeps coming up for a month at a time until they switch to something else.

It'd be nice if there was a disinformation website, you could look it up and say, oh, that's, uh, No, that's not true. And here's why. And so pediatricians could debunk it in real time.

The AI is kind of a two-edged sword too. Our friend Renee DiResta, who formerly heads the Stanford Internet Observatory until it had to close down because of political pressure, wrote an excellent article in The Atlantic early on in the pandemic entitled, Disinformation is About to Go Infinite, referring to the role of AI disinformation. And I got asked,

And this group from Australia had used three AI programs to see if they could generate health disinformation. And they picked two topics, vaping and vaccines. And they used the Google program, ChatGPT, and the Microsoft AI program. And
