Episode 11: Kelley Krohnert On The CDC's Misinformation

Jul 28, 2023

Hi Illusion of Consensus readers,

I am delighted to host Kelly Kroner, who has come to prominence during the pandemic as basically a citizen scientist, a leader in holding the CDC and other scientists accountable for basic errors in math and counting. It's been striking to watch professionals publish pieces — scare-mongering about the deadliness of COVID to children — and to watch Kelly take apart these claims, using data from the CDC, analyzing the basic standard sources.

I've been admiring her advocacy for some time now on Twitter. In fact, I think I wrote a tweet saying that you're a national treasure, and I honestly believe that. It's been wonderful to watch. Enjoy my hour-long conversation with her.

— Jay Bhattacharya
