I take it Wikipedia has rescinded its rules about slandering living persons. It is clear that his page has been hijacked as part of a campaign to smear those who dissent with the sponsored narrative on pandemics, vaccination and civil liberties. |

Both the general introduction and the introduction to his writing are designed to denigrate Coleman. The opening sentence "Vernon Coleman (born 18 May 1946) is an English conspiracy theorist, anti-vaccination activist, AIDS denialist, blogger and novelist who writes on topics related to human health, politics and animal issues" so clearly prioritises Coleman's crimes in the eyes of the establishment that it's hard not to laugh. |

I take it Wikipedia has rescinded its rules about slandering living persons. It is clear that his page has been hijacked as part of a campaign to smear those who dissent with the sponsored narrative on pandemics, vaccination and civil liberties.
Both the general introduction and the introduction to his writing are designed to denigrate Coleman. The opening sentence "Vernon Coleman (born 18 May 1946) is an English conspiracy theorist, anti-vaccination activist, AIDS denialist, blogger and novelist who writes on topics related to human health, politics and animal issues" so clearly prioritises Coleman's crimes in the eyes of the establishment that it's hard not to laugh.
The writer/s appear to have trawled through Coleman's life looking for dirt, though they haven't found much. "He is no longer registered or licensed to practise as a GP principal, having relinquished his medical licence in March 2016." This is pretty desperate - Coleman was 70 and hadn't been practicing for years! His views on AIDS are expressed as opinions rather than being definitive - I note the expression "AIDS denier", coined like others similar to discourage scientific scrutiny.
Absolutely no understanding is created of Coleman's many achievements and accolades: "Britain's leading health care campaigner" (The Sun) "Dr Vernon Coleman is one of our most enlightened, trenchant and sensible dispensers of medical advice." (The Observer) "Sharpest mind in medical journalism." (Daily Star) "His message is important." (The Economist) "Perhaps the best known health writer in the world today" (The Therapist) "Probably one of the most brilliant men alive." (Irish Times) "The patient's champion." (Birmingham Post) "Britain's leading medical author." (The Star) "An articulate and prolific medical author." (Sunday Times) "He writes lucidly and wittily." (Good Housekeeping) "Coleman is a very funny writer." (This England) "Marvellously succinct, refreshingly sensible." (The Spectator) "Compulsive reading." (The Guardian) "The doctor who dares to speak his mind." (Oxford Mail) "It's impossible not to be impressed." (Western Daily Press) "His advice is optimistic and enthusiastic." (British Medical Journal) "He's the Lone Ranger, Robin Hood and the Equalizer rolled into one." (Glasgow Evening Times) "Vernon Coleman writes brilliant books." (The Good Book Guide) "...no thinking person can ignore him. This is why he has been for over 20 years one of the world's leading advocates on human and animal rights in relation to health. Long may it continue!" (The Ecologist) "Dr Coleman is one of our most enlightened, trenchant and sensitive dispensers of medical advice" (The Observer)
Wikipedia would do better to designate the Vernon Coleman article in its present form as its worst ever article.
