Wow that’s dangerous. The interviewee is an ex director at the WHO with over 50 years experience as an Oncologist. He's being deplatformed for even slightly questioning the conventional wisdom. Wow! These tech companies hold way too much power. https://mobile.twitter.com/ProfKarolSikora https://mobile.twitter.com/ProfKarolSikora

Even if he's a raving insane person, he should be left online. Indeed, they probably don't censor the people who are truly insane because that's obvious to any viewer. They only censor the people who say things they don't like.

> ex director at the WHO Regarding his relation to WHO, according to his own claims (dead link on wikipedia) he was "Chief of the Cancer Program from 1997" (to 1999, just two years, two decades ago). But we also know that he falsely claimed to be professor on Imperial College, see also posts here.

  There are documents in the WHO's online archive which support the claim. E.g.: https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/331393/WH-1998-Sep-Oct-p19-20-eng.pdf https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/331393/WH-1...

    Yes, thanks, there it is: "Dr Karol Sikora is Chief of the WHO Programme on Cancer Control" as per the magazine from "September--October 1998" 1) obviously not equivalent to "ex director at the WHO" 2) obviously more than 20 years ago 3) and "on cancer control", not on epidemiology still not anything to allow him to misrepresent his relation to Imperial College as late as 2020 (!) or to give a credence to his current epidemiological policy views.

His Wikipedia article mentions that he accepted a position as Chief of the Cancer Program of the World Health Organization for two years (1997-1999).
