When I was at NIH and shutdowns loomed, it was discovered that the administration was planning to shut down PubMed. The head of NCBI called the powers that be and pointed out that this would threaten patient safety
Who knows what will happen now
Just in case, remember Euruope-PMC

PACT suppresses PKR activation, thus preventing activation of the integrated stress response, NF-κB, and cell death. Dimerization and double-stranded #RNA binding by PACT is required for this function. @kylecottrell.bsky.social @cancer-inst-purdue.bsky.social bit.ly/4oC3Vm7
