The article is hardcore antivax misinformation, carefully and intentionally crafted to be so, and "coherent" is a very low bar. No matter how good your motives were in posting it, it should be flagged. You've now put the onus on people to either let this superficially convincing thing go unchallenged and have people believe it, or waste their time trying to refute the ever changing arguments made by these bad actors. Please reconsider the second order effects. Like, if you see a creationist proof against evolution that follows the scientific form superficially, do you post it to HN because it deserves to be discussed? I sure as hell hope not. What happened with the AZ vaccine in the Nordic countries is pretty good at showing how tiny effects would be detected by the public health authorities once the vaccines were rolled out to prod, and how the authorities would react to it (hint: not by covering it up to boost foreign big pharma profits, or whatever the conspiracy theory of this week is). The safety of these vaccines, as well as the relative benefits, has been intensly studied by the people who have to make the actual calls. Those are the people we should be listening to, not engaging in a dialogue with malicious crackpots.
