Vinay Prasad and Jeffrey S. Flier write in the STAT that scientists with opposing views should be heard and not demonized, using John Ioannidis as an example

Ioannidis wrote an article back in mid-March in the STAT about how we did not have enough information on COVID-19 to justify the most extreme lockdown measures, which could also have grave consequences. This was a take that many scientists disagreed on and voiced this on social media. Instead of opening up a dialogue they ensued with "personal attacks and disparaging comments...It's important to hear, consider and debate these views without ad hominem attacks or animus".
