A vaccine scientist said he was “stalked” after podcast host Joe Rogan called for him to debate Democratic presidential candidate and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
“Ugh I just was stalked in front of my home by a couple of antivaxers taunting me to debate RFKJr. … What is it with people?” Peter Hotez, a professor at Baylor College of Medicine, wrote on Twitter Sunday.
Hotez had shared a Vice article on vaccine misinformation in a conversation between Rogan and Kennedy on “The Joe Rogan Experience,” writing that “from all the online attacks I’m receiving after this absurd podcast, it’s clear many actually believe this nonsense.”
Rogan replied to Hotez’s post, calling for the scientist to debate the White House hopeful on his podcast.
“Peter, if you claim what RFKjr is saying is ‘misinformation’ I am offering you $100,000.00 to the charity of your choice if you’re willing to debate him on my show with no time limit,” Rogan said on Twitter.
“Joe, you have my cell, my email, I’m always willing to speak with you,” Hotez responded, but Rogan argued it was a “non answer.”
