When you write a book talking about how self-dealing incentives have disrupted science, this is great timing. Thanks, @nature.com for the inadvertent help. www.nature.com/immersive/d4...

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

Cyberlibertarianism on full display. He wants the right to lie without consequences.

“The reason we’re having a measles outbreak is because of the Covid lockdowns, because people didn’t — children during that period did not get vaccinated.” It’s a day that ends in Y, so RFK Jr. is lying again. The antivax movement and his incompetence are why we have an ongoing measles outbreak.

We are experiencing a reversal of accountability in the country. Some people accused of serious wrongdoing appear to avoid consequences while others, including immigrants and protesters, face aggressive enforcement. A nation cannot survive when the powerful play by different rules.
