Is Surgeon General Jerome Adams refusing to engage on twitter with Clive Bates?

The story is posted on Planet of the Vapes: On his personal twitter account (not the official one), Surgeon General Jerome Adams posts on December 9 that he visited a few vape shops and tried to learn more about vaping

That's a good idea. Better a bit late than never. When visiting the thread I saw that a few vapers joined in. Considering the importance of the issues, maybe they deserve a bigger forum than twitter although I would encourage all vapers who care to let the Surgeon General they appreciate his interest and wish he agrees to more exchanges. As for Clive being banned to comment, that would not be the best way to converse. Is that the reality?
