Really interesting arguments put forward by Sally and John! No doubt there’ll be a significant response - good to critically consider these things! They ask “Is it time to change midwives’ professional title?”

there goes the sociology of gender..... my specialty. Thank god I do not work at the CDC..... but this cannot stand. Governmental data is vital for education and research.... we must find a way to resist!
Publishing folks - how is the sector reacting to this? Can journals be moved abroad (aren’t they already international)? insidemedicine.substack.com/p/breaking-n... #OpenAccess #AcademicSky
BREAKING NEWS: CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed.
Any unpublished manuscript mentioning certain topics, including gender and "LGBT," must be pulled or revised.
