This will have a crippling financial impact on academic institutions, increase unemployment, & stifle science
The $47B NIH budget generates ~$93B in economic activity/yr. Unparalleled 2.46-fold ROI. nearly every new drug has an origin in science funded by NIH incl pharma/biotch

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

Perpetuating the false notion that race is biologic is dangerous. We've sequenced the human genome & know there's more genetic variation within a racial category than amongst them. (1/3)
ALSOBROOKS: You said 'we should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that is given to whites.' Can you please explain what you meant?
RFK Jr: There's a series of studies ...
