The cover of the Lancet says it all. The Trump administration is destroying healthcare and science.

@ErikJonker I'm unaware of the Lancet ever reckoning with legitimizing Wakefield in the first place beyond waiting TWELVE YEARS to retract the transparently fraudulent "vaccines cause autism" paper.

@ErikJonker I'm seeing a lot of "Lancet is just as bad as pseudoscience because Wakefield" arguments here. Watching Wakefield become the Sokal of modern medical inquiry is some Soviet-level jiujitsu.

@ErikJonker I shouldn't take the Lancet to inform the thinking public. Kennedy is deranged, deluded & dangerous

@ErikJonker If you ever wondered what happens on a larger scale, in states where fundamentalism takes over science, ethics, and respect.

@ErikJonker useful alt text:
The cover of The Lancet for the period of February 28 - March 6, 2026, which is all white except for a quote in green text "The destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 year might take generations to repair, and there is little hope for US health and science while he remains at the helm" with small text below saying "See Editorial page 825"
