I read on NPR that 12 people were responsible for I think 68% of the misinformation regarding vaccines, among them doctors and quacks selling natural remedies etc. who thus are lying to make money. Folk who buy or bought such shit may die tomorrow or already be dead for refusing to take vaccines. A death penalty for such lying might deter a lot of this. Same thing with Trumps big lie. Trump should be offered a chance to recant or be strung up. A Civil War would get a lot of people killed. Isn’t it time to pass laws to prevent this.
The issue as to whom the duty will fall to determine truth from lie would of course be fraught with pronlems also, because the liars would work hard to corrupt it, but it could maybe best handled by the scientific community with their natural inclination to question and test. So regardless of the potential risks, we are looking pretty fucked already so what’s a it more risk?
