Houston, TX – Houston-based doctor Peter Hotez is well known as a proponent of pandemic precautions.

He’s also Jewish. This week, he tweeted out a photo of images he received in the mai, two swastikas, one overlaid onto a mask and another constructed with syringes.

Letter sent to our home this afternoon in the US Mail. The second like this in a month. I really don’t want or need a Swastika collection. Local law enforcement and ⁦@ADL⁩ notified. On top of all the other aggression since Twitter invited back the hate groups. Tough stuff. pic.twitter.com/wznyz2oFot

Hotez wasn’t available for an interview. He tweeted that he has also received phone calls and been stalked. He’s previously spoken about the link between COVID-19 disinformation and a rise in antisemitic hate.

Just a note to thank you for all your expressions of support in light of recent antisemitic attacks online, letters mailed to our home, phone calls, even a past physical stalking. Your kindness = a reminder that there are still many many good/intelligent people on this platform
