    When Ebola swept through West Africa in the mid-2010s, Ashish Jha joined a chorus of health experts criticizing the World Health Organization’s response.

I liked this @CitationsPod episode, taking down the anti-science posturing by certain politicians, and their bad-faith attacks on federally funded research. Science journalists have covered these issues well, but we’re in the minority. https://t.co/tjcRP1ZWOs
