Researchers did not mince words about this purge of senior NIH leadership: “This will go down as one of the darkest days in modern scientific history in my 50 years in the business,” says @mtosterholm.bsky.social. These cuts come on Jay Bhattacharya's first day as NIH director.

To add to the list: Kathleen Neuzil, head of the Fogarty International Center, has also been offered reassignment and placed on admin leave, an NIH source tells me.

You can't replace centuries of combined expertise with a bunch of ideologues and quacks and expect improved health or innovation. This isn't elevating HHS to a "gold standard", it's throwing lifetimes of experience & wisdom into a fucking latrine pit.

As long as the US is condemning millions to HIV infection and death abroad by canning PEPFAR/USAID, might as well do that in America too! Think globally, act locally when it comes to not preventing HIV.

And who needs surveillance and epidemiology of blood disorders anyway? Evidently not the CDC.
