Estem tornant a una època com la del maccarthisme? Jo era petit durant aquella època, i vivia al Regne Unit, però sí, va ser una època inquietant. En alguns aspectes, ara això és molt pitjor. McCarthy era només senador, no president. Ara tot això passa al més alt nivell. www.ara.cat/128_523c96?u...

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

Harvard today, your institution tomorrow. It's all part of the Project 2025 plan to destroy high education in America. All leading US universities depend on federal funding and tuition dollars from international students. They severely curtailed the former. Now they're eliminating the latter.

Harvard has centres in Shanghai, Naples, Athens, Paris, Mumbai, Tokyo, Sao Paulo and two dozen other cities outside the US, so if there is one university that could shift to a global model in a crisis this is it.
