REPORT: FL Researchers Pressured to Destroy Data, Warned Not to Criticize DeSantis
Researchers at the University of Florida were pressured to delete COVID-19 data while working on a study for an undisclosed state entity, according to a report released on Monday by the Faculty Senate committee.
The report stated that staff felt "external pressure to destroy" data, and "barriers to accessing and analyzing" data in a timely manner. Other challenges reported to the committee included "palpable reticence and even fear on the part of faculty to speak up on these issues."
In addition, faculty "often engaged in self-censorship and chose not to 'rock the boat' for fear of retaliation," according to the report. University of Florida employees were reportedly told "not to criticize the Governor of Florida or UF policies related to COVID-19 in media interactions."
Florida has one of the higher infection rates: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1109004/coronavirus-covid19-cases-rate-us-americans-by-state/
Have to wonder if it's actually higher considering DeSantis is using suppression tactics to hide his intentional covid-19 f**k ups.

So you're going to bother the mods about a post that you think might bother the mods?
I'm going to bother the mods for trolling and targeted harassment.
My comment was aimed at Doctor Fauci exacerbating the problem of anti-vaxing by calling himself "science", which is just an asinine thing to say and more likely to push people away from vaxing.
And Whirl somehow got that I was attacking a "poster" from that.
There is no way that is possible. Whirly is gaslighting me.
So report.

Ok bro
Is that supposed to be derailment?
Because it was on topic.
Or are we labeling all anti-vax as derailing now?
I mean, I know you want to call all resistance to vaccines or government dogma as "fake news", but anti-vaxing is a legitimate position. Everyone has a right to make up their own minds.
And I personally think the government and big business has lied too many times to be trustworthy.
Rand Paul eviscerates Dr. Fauci.
Transgenderism rejects biology, unless someone needs medicine/therapy to change their appearance.
Creationism rejects biology, unless it has changed over time so it can say "see, they contradict themselves too!" Despite a revision not being a contradiction.
Anti-vaxers reject biology, unless they absolutely need the vaccine to go somewhere or get sick enough to miss a debate like Trump did.
I honestly think our education systems need to change and make a basic understanding of science mandatory, like it is with Maths and English (or whatever language in your land).

Smart people do consider gender to be different than biological sex and gender is a social construct.

The argument goes race is a social construct as well, but not skin colour, so white Americans can identify as African Americans.
So I agree it is just being made up at this point. And anything that requires surgery is obviously not biological.
