More insanity, this time coming from the incompetent head of HHS; as reported by the Washington Post:
“Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Tuesday that he may bar government scientists from publishing in the world’s leading medical journals, instead proposing the creation of “in-house” publications by his agency — the latest in the Trump administration’s attacks on scientific institutions.
“We’re probably going to stop publishing in the Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA and those other journals because they’re all corrupt,” Kennedy said during an appearance on the “Ultimate Human” podcast. He also described the journals as being under the control of pharmaceutical companies.”
And then there’s this – STAT reports that a $600 million Moderna contract for work on mRNA vaccines for pandemic influenza (including H5N1) was cancelled.
