Is there a go-to for dealing with Malone's claims?

Robert Malone has most of hawaii's people and political system paralyzed as he is seen as THE authority on vaccines. He, here is probably the single largest force driving the anti vaccine stance here among the locals as well, and he is constantly cited in little video blips.

I searched long and hard but, though youtube loves to ban scientists or science communicators like myself and thunderf00t for showing science, they let these quackspiracy videos stay up

Where can I find a site or something digestible, that deals with malone's claims?
 
Debunk the Funk has made a good video:



I think that ZDogg has made a couple of good videos and podcasts addressing him, albeit from a slightly more sympathetic viewpoint and unfortunately with the more credulous Vinay Prasad:



And a good discussion here with Paul Offit who puts Malone’s history into perspective (from about 44 minutes in):

Also, from a less medical perspective and from a more generally piss-taking view of Rogan, McCullough and Malone, and a looooong listen, these two guys make fun of what they call internet gurus;

I thought the CDC and FDA were the go to source?

Give me a claim Malone has made that you feel is in error and I"ll help you debunk it.

Note that if you follow that link to the YouTube page, he has tons of links to the studies, etc. backing up his points in the video description and a pinned comment. So it is sort of a go-to resource with links to lots of other resources.
 
It would be great if there was a resource like the one that is/use to be here for debunking 911 stuff. Whenever I would deep dive into stuff I would come here jref to see what I was missing. Video responses are terrible for this, to me anyway, because you have to reference back to studies listed elsewhere and it interrupts the flow.

Well, as mentioned, Debunk the Funk’s video has a lot of resources in the description for specific claims that have been made.

That said, I do agree with you that it would be a good idea to start compiling a webpage of Covid Myths.
