Appalling to see a number of ‘scientists’ also take part in the anti-Fauci rhetoric and be manipulated so easily by politicians. The origins narrative they spin re: Fauci is entirely and utterly false…and I know because I was there.

I do find the "why are you so quiet?" argument a bit confusing. It's not that things have gone unsaid, it's that few are interested in listening because what we have to say doesn't bolster lazy narratives.

I don't understand the quiet from big scientific institutions, though. And this is not just a USA thing. I'm seeing some heroic individual efforts, but for the most part, they are just that, individual.

Time for a special issue of Lancet Microbe on specifically this issue??

The silence from Academies of Science & Medicine worldwide has been deafening. I really don't understand why they've been like this.

Who gives a damn what Horton / the Lancet says about anything. The fact that it took him *12 years* to retract the Wakefield paper means he bears heavy responsibility for the anti-vax movement.

powerful, as you say, but with the handbrake on
