"Second, scientists should consider what kinds of argument the data and conclusions serve. How might these shape public opinion? What policy decisions might they affect? A review of corporate determinants of health highlights how media ownership can shape coverage and frame whether health is seen as a matter of ‘personal responsibility’, which suits corporate interests, or a communal and governmental responsibility (M. McKee and D. Stuckler Am. J. Public Health 108, 1167–1170; 2018). This has a key role in whether individual decisions are cast as a matter of ‘freedom’ versus ‘solidarity’, and regulations as restriction or protection. Scientists can point out these framings when talking to reporters or on social media."
F.D.A. Seeks More Oversight of Vaccine Trials and Approvals The agency’s top vaccine regulator proposed broad changes, claiming that a new review linked 10 children’s deaths to the Covid vaccine.

"Several generations ago, Dr. Rashel Israelson, Dr. Rabin’s great-grandmother and a pioneering Soviet endocrinologist, was denounced during Stalin’s anti-cosmopolitan campaign for the crime of citing Western scientific sources in her dissertation. She lost her laboratory, and her freshly published book was incinerated in the institute’s boiler room. Nearly 80 years later, our work feels similarly imperiled. The question is: Will the government police words and obstruct research, or will it allow doctors to work freely in the name of health?"

John Burn-Murdoch’s post on Twitter “NEW: analysis of millions of books published over the centuries suggests western society is shifting away from a culture of progress, and towards one of caution, worry and risk-aversion. I think this is one of the most important challenges facing us today.” https://x.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1743238493248037167?s=46&t=bhDjePNy8HzJ1rKzWqrpBQ
