To the world:
We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom.

—With love,
Your American allies.

Really comprehensive and brutal description of what’s going on at US science agencies by @dereklowe.bsky.social. Read to the end: because this doesn’t need to continue, the rest is not inevitable. We can fight back.
I’ve unfortunately needed to add more material to my post from yesterday. The re-election of Donald Trump is looking like the biggest act of American self-destruction since the Civil War.

Same link, new title and some updates.

Almost every week now for months, we’ve seen articles warning us about the threat of H5N1, otherwise known as “bird flu.” Will it be our next pandemic? We’ve officially entered the “fuck-around-and-find-out” phase. My latest for The Nation. www.thenation.com/article/soci...
Will There Be a Bird Flu Epidemic Under Trump?
H5N1 currently poses a real threat for human transmission. Meanwhile, Trump’s picks for public health roles don’t bode well for vaccination.

Jay Bhattacharya has no business being with 500 miles of NIH. This is unhinged stuff. They "caused" the pandemic? Fire all people working on pandemic preparedness? This is not normal. I ask colleagues to stop pretending it is.
