Under JFK Jr. science* has been abandoned for “half baked woo.” Cell lines that
are vital to research that have been going for years are under threat, even though
the C-19 virus is still killing 300 Americans a week and is mutating into new strains
he is abandoning work on it, and Russian produced disinformation about virology
and evolutionary biology is in-braced by clueless ideologues and right wing talkers.

* science = “the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation, experimentation, and the testing of theories against the evidence obtained.“ BTW science
Is just that science it is not liberal or conservative or white or black or straight or gay. They are doing
the same anti science nonsense to NOAA’s climate observatory on Mauna Loa right now too.

Thanx for your post.
