Original Note:
Dr. Hotez's claim "one doesn't typically debate science" is false. Scientists have long been known to hold public, one on one, debates in order to try and convince their peers that their position is the one with better evidence that can withstand scrutiny. https://www.theguardian.com/science/brain-flapping/2014/feb/06/scientific-debates-a-noble-tradition https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2016/05/06/science-is-not-a-democracy-and-can-never-be-one/?sh=33b65975798b
