There have been a few asbestos, tobacco, fossil fuels emissions and by-products, teflon, nano-materials, thalidomide, oxycodone, cancer researcher, respiratory masking, & respiratory disease transmission vector scientists who seem to have wanted some things not shared or known.
Thanks to a young person I know, who told me about the statement #Streeting made in #PinkNews I am now:
F@$%ing livid
Double speak:
"Support is not on hold."
...but we've closed the only way teens can access puberty blockers and hormones
The govt needs to stop relying on the discredited #CassReview & follow well established, evidence based #WPATH guidelines
Cass & Streeting are responsible for so much death and suffering, there should be a murder trial
Sir Chris Whitty, the UKs former Chief Medical Officer for the UK government recently voiced his support for the #CassReview , stating that it's a "very sensible review", while also saying too many "non experts" are wading into the "debate".
Given he's a literal physician, he should know that Dr Hillary Cass has no credentials in gender medicine, and used a shit tonne of sources from TERFs to back up her report. Doesn't sound very sensible to me 🤔 #UK #Trans #LGBTQIA

Vent:
Damn Wikipedia to hell.
The absence of major criticisms of the methodology of the Cass Review, and the presence of many "it's all normal" factoids, in the lede cover up the extreme abuse, and twisting to political purposes, of science, that the Cass Review is.

Two medical associations update their recommendations on gender-affirming care for trans youth
(Cass Review)
... for transgender childten took a very similar approach, rejecting over 700 highly relevant research studies and pretending that only one type of research has validity, which, to no one's surprise, let them make garbage conclusions.
The approach to a subject taken by scientists is always political. And sometimes illegitimate and deceitful.
Fazit: Marcus Evans bietet keine klinische Alternative, sondern einen ideologischen Rückfall in eine diskreditierte Medizingeschichte. Trans-Identität lässt sich nicht „wegtherapieren“ – weder direkt noch durch die Behandlung angeblicher „Ursachen“. Wer Hilfe verweigert, bis Jugendliche zerbrechen, betreibt keine Therapie, sondern institutionelle Vernachlässigung.

CASSREVIEW verstößt gegen internationale Regeln wissenschaftlicher Integrität und Ethik.
Cass hat einen Clinical Review geschrieben, der aus guten Gründen nur von einer multidisziplinären Gruppe von persönlich identifizierbaren, einschlägig qualifizierten Fachpersonen verfasst und nach externem Review veröffentlicht werden sollte.
periodic reminder that the push to ban gender affirming care isn't evidence based but rather a purely political project
