    Max Hastings at his coruscating best. Has this experiment in celebrity government given us the most disreputable leader in history?

    This is utterly horrific & has required to seek police protection Right wing anti-vaxx disinformation & aggression is fueling a rise in vaccine-preventable deaths (Fox peddles anti-vaxx nonsense all day long) & it is putting the lives of Jewish scientists at risk

    As the US approaches One Million deaths from Covid, fueled by backlash against vaccines & masks, ratchets up anti-science aggression by targeting vaccine researcher . Sad & scary times.

    And all that talk about Moderna waiving its patents.

    Moderna falls after losing an appeal of a patent ruling involving a rival’s drug-delivery technology, which could make its Covid-19 vaccine vulnerable to infringement suits via
