In their "Comment on 'Negative Deviations from the Debye-Hückel Limiting Law for High-Charge Polyvalent Electrolytes: Are They Real?' " Biver and Malatesta, citing my respective paper, argue that my analysis of experimental data of their group is wrong and so is my conclusion that negative deviations observed by them are not physically real. Here I rebut their arguments and explain why their rejection of my work is unjustified, and why those authors do not in any way prove me wrong. The core of my study and conclusion remains intact: Negative deviations in the case of high-charge electrolytes with | z z| > 3 do not always happen, and so far, such observed deviations are not convincingly supported by theory.

Background: Health misinformation undermines responses to health crises, with social media amplifying the issue. Although organizations work to correct misinformation, challenges persist due to reasons such as the difficulty of effectively sharing corrections and information being overwhelming. At the same time, social media offers valuable interactive data, enabling researchers to analyze user engagement with health misinformation corrections and refine content design strategies.

Background And Objectives: Social media platforms such as X (formerly Twitter) are increasingly used in medical education. Characteristics of tweetorials (threaded teaching posts) associated with higher degrees of engagement are unknown. We sought to understand features of neurology-themed tweetorials associated with high sharing and engagement.
