I've come across Kelly Brogan before through the Science Based Medicine blog. She is a known anti-vaxxer and purveyor of quackery including pushing the idea that depression symptoms are caused by diet. She is a very good example of how someone with a medical degree can spout complete nonsense.
Now during the COVID-19 pandemic, Brogan gives some of her outrageous views

"to single one out and villanize it, to me is just silly" She doesn't believe in germ-based contagion. She believes that fear is the cause of the deaths of people.
It is ideas like hers that are putting people at risk. The spread of the virus spreads quickly when people don't follow the advice that we've been given by the real expert medical advice from WHO, CDC, Health Canada, etc. Beliefs are not enough to go on. You should base your decisions on facts, science, and rationality. How people can support quackery pushers like Brogan is beyond me.
