Powerful interest groups risk societal stability by prioritizing member-beneficial policies at the cost of the larger population.
Their neglect to uphold and defend fundamental institutions - democracy, science, medicine, and public health - forms a perilous threat to the bedrock of our nation. 🩺💉⚖️

He also said: "We have this place as a reminder what can happen when people forget about their morals."
He was right & people keep forgetting their morals. Again & again. 💔

Just a couple of days ago, I visited the Kigali Genocide Memorial. Our guide said: "While the world likes to use the words 'Never again', we try to stay away from them because we know it will happen again, it's already happening in many places in the world."

Access to vaccines is a privilege. Globally, access to vaccines means survival. As global health professionals fight for equitable access to vaccines, the most privileged country in the world, which has access to all vaccines, produced the most ammout of vaccine disinformation🤷🏻♀️

The university applies for a visa so that you can come as a postdoctoral fellow. And then you can never complain about anything or bring up an issue because they remind you that you can lose visa if you complain.

And people move to pharma. Bc pharma values them based on merit not on formal criteria. If you bring ideas, you work hard, you advance. I have many friends who started as postdocs, was gaslighted for years & finally left to pharma. They feel valued. Academia is a toxic place.

You can't compete with applicants from top universities. You may hear: You probably reached your ceiling in our dept & there is nothing else for you here. You may hear: Remember you are on visa, we don't recommend you doing *** not to compromise your immigration status.

Stollen ideas, added authors to your articles who did nothing, stollen projects, rejected articles, rejected grant proposals with the ideas that later pop up elsewhere. You may hear: Your formal criteria (foreign edu) are not competitive for grant applications.

The more I learn about Katalin Kariko, the more I keep thinking of my experience & experience of colleagues & friends in academic basic science. Basic science in this country is done by immigrants who often come as postdocs. Advancement is hard & environment is toxic.

The toxicity of academia right here. Take credit for the work they have nothing to do with and congratulate themselves as this work achieves a high prize.

Now Penn is boasting in public that one of theirs got the Nobel. Read the story! The only thing they should be saying in public is “we are sorry”. But really better not to be saying anything at all…

We are so screwed.
By not pushing back more forcefully against this false narrative and libertarian propaganda spread to sow doubt for political gain and dismantle institutions, we are all going to suffer.
Now we are caving on even the slightest efforts to reign in such extremism. SMH.

This is the FL DOH that is funded by the taxpayers' money to actually protect these same taxpayers. This is the FL Surgeon General who previously manipulated the study & now presents some nonfacts & who is also paid by taxpayers' money. Both seem to be a waste of taxpayers' funds

South Florida. Walgreens. Came for my vaccine appointment. There is a line to get vaccines. All slots are taken. Every person in line is getting COVID-19 booster. Some also get other vaccines (RSV, shingles, flu).

Horrible. When disinfo runs unopposed, people are starting to give in. Organizations & institutions failed to fight this.

Absolutely. We went in the wrong direction. We should have been talking about N95, ventilation, and long-term effects (accelerated cancers, neurological disasters, cardiovascular issues, etc), yet we are stuck in vicious cycle - lockdown/vaccine/lab leak/harm from masks/IVM. 🤦🏻♀️

It is very sad to watch a lot of ignorance to covid related data in the medical community. Poorly educated or disinfo believing mentors train their mentees the same ignorant way.
