When economics had their watershed moment, the GFC, they had to start holding economists who misbehaved to a higher standard

The HCQ thing was driven by largely by Trump. Who gave him the idea in the 1st place? I don't think the combined media/social media/PR powers of every epidemiologist in the world can overcome the presence of a malign actor that powerful.

Not an epi, but I would say that material reckoning wrt economists did not happen. And also the challenge this time seems not to be the epidemiologists, but the phonies. That’s hard. Also the problem with economists, most of whom do great work but some who are prominent hacks.
