Yes! No problem! I didnāt know they were doing that! Also what are they going to block me for? Sharing reliable sources? Commentary? lol

I am certainly not. I knew before that the reports of plagiarism were not a good excuse, they did not hold water. There are degrees of plagiarism. I agree that there is more at play- and that it is unfortunate that Bill Ackman was instrumental in getting her fired.

Yup. I am aware.

Yes I did hear that. However, I did read that the reason for Claudine Gay's firing was because of multiple cases of plagiarism ranging from her PhD dissertation to published works. What actually was plagiarized appears to be overblown.

š§ŖSo this is the third lawsuit against the administration.
There are reports of two similar lawsuits by Columbia, the American Public Health Association, the Ibis Reproductive Health.
More to come.

Just today my mom just sent me a āholisticā video by a random Indian yoga guru on how to cure breast cancer, thinking I might have missed something in my career as a scientist. She forgets that Iāve published articles on the subject. Gotta love ethnic moms š

None of those 200+ research articles can negate the horrific experience of real struggling people, especially when it runs in the family.

A delicious case of FAFO.
Also, sharing that I found out that an ex bf from yrs ago committed suicide on the eve of Passover in 2023. He slashed his neck. Found by his widowed father on the floor of his old room bleeding. Next to an old photo of us. I found his obituary online. It is real.

š§ŖI have a strong feeling that future epidemiology grants are going to be affected by this. Some institutions are going to be hit harder than others.
comment in response to
post
š§ŖFuture grant recipients would have to "certify" that they do not have any diversity, equity or inclusion" related programs and they do not participate in boycotts of Israeli companies or firms doing business with Israel. If the grantee is found to violate these terms, the award will be terminated.

I think that if people are going to be offensive/rude on a *public* forum like BlueSky they should understand that they wonāt get away with it. Politely disagreeing is one thing. But this type of behavior is unacceptable. That comment was pointless. No one gets a free pass, advanced degree or not.

Yes. I read that.That is a fascinating detail. An oversight by a journalist engendered the creation of the worldās highest award. But it is hard to fit all that in 300 characters on this platform š

@gieck.bsky.social what is your opinion on this?
comment in response to
post
This is really informative. So these virologists suggest that the SARS-CoV-2 may have had origins in late 2019, and the wet market happened to be one of first outbreaks of Covid, (that was publicized in January) not long after the initial infection(s). Thanks for sharing!

š§ŖYes! People can get lost in the weeds and argue all they want, especially about Fauciās alleged actions. The WH made him the scapegoat and their reason to attack science as a whole. It has turned into an anti-science propaganda machine, listing events /details w/o or out of context. Open your eyes!

Truth. Unfortunately it is more about power and control. The current administration does not have the countryās best interests at heart.

š§ŖAdam Kucharski has done a great job at fact checking/breaking down the propaganda stated in Covid.gov. This thread is a must read.

"Debunked" is inaccurate. The article, 2 yrs old, is full of details/opinions that detract from the real concern. If there are significant inaccuracies in the Proximal Origins paper, then there needs to be solid proof presented by appropriate people in the field. Retractions are serious business.
