Full disclosure, I met Dr. 'DA Henderson in person at Johns Hopkins in 2001, I did a certificate in Bioterrorism, biowarfare & he taught too; I asked him to supervise me for biowarfare doctorate & he
agreed, IMO a great American, brilliant, & yes, Johns Hopkins was setting up this bioterrorism program, I simply wished to update my epidemiolgy with biowarfare training, I got it, 'DA became a friend
He can be considered the father so to speak in the study of the effects of NPIs (non-pharmaceutical interventions) as it releated to pandemics etc. Brilliant. Eradicated global small-pox with other teams. Our talks were intense and I learnt lots about lockdowns, NPIs, bioterrorism, biological warfare and weaponization of pathogen e.g. plague, small-pox, tularemia, Q-fever, anthrax etc. He taught me lots in our private discussions at JHopkins and after and I was so excited he agreed to supervise me for a doctorate. You know he passed, RIP and I did my doctorate eventually with an equal giant, Dr. Gordon Guyatt, the father of Evidence based medicine out of McMaster, Canada. Gordon is a beautiful person, a personal friend and mentor and we remain so despite my argument that EBM has lost its way and it committed suicide over COVID.
You are a man of many talents Dr. Alexander. Very prescient of you to do that certificate. Maybe that's part of the reason you are so far ahead of your peers and the horsemen!
I have lost all respect for universities which mandated the shots; that is, I've lost respect for every university I can think of.
