Professor Who Called Students ‘Vectors of Disease’ in Video Is Suspended

[David Lockmiller]

Regarding Dr. Mehler
Why his viral video doesn’t show you the entire picture of the man

The reporter writes:

If you haven’t had a class with Mehler, the video is concerning. (Emphasis added.) However, that’s Mehler in character. In no way is Mehler being truly malicious. All Mehler was looking to do was make a point. Mehler is 74 years old. With a variant cropping up that has higher transmission than anything we’ve seen, of course he’s going to be concerned.

Seeing such misunderstandment about Mehler and his beliefs is frustrating. I’d encourage taking a class with him and getting the picture that I have.

Well, Rob, it's now obvious that you have had a class with Professor Mehler. Why is it that we had to learn this fact from a Torch reporter?

This has only increased our "misunderstandment" of the situation.
