Mini-Post: Censored!

Once again, just like "Nineteen Eighty-Four's Ministry of truth" Trump administration yanks what they call "Controversial" topics! ProPublica writes,
Employees at the National Cancer Institute, which is part of the National Institutes of Health, received internal guidance last week to flag manuscripts, presentations or other communications for scrutiny if they addressed “controversial, high profile, or sensitive” topics. Among the 23 hot-button issues, according to internal records reviewed by ProPublica: vaccines, fluoride, peanut allergies, autism.

While it’s not uncommon for the cancer institute to outline a couple of administration priorities, the scope and scale of the list is unprecedented and highly unusual, said six employees who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly. All materials must be reviewed by an institute “clearance team,” according to the records, and could be examined by officials at the NIH or its umbrella agency, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Staffers and experts worried that the directive would delay or halt the publication of research. “This is micromanagement at the highest level,” said Dr. Georges C. Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association.
Muzzled by the quacks. How many will die because they pulled important health information from the public because the quack head of the DHHS doesn't believe in healthcare.



I just checked PubMed* to see if they have deleted us and so far they haven't. I searched Transgender, LGBTQ, and abortions and they are all still there.
