Scientists warn and protect us from disease outbreaks, hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, earthquakes, heatwaves, and much more. Bullying them, doxxing them, and harassing them off social media and public platforms will put *everyone* at more risk no matter what your politics.

@mike_johansen you should email the authors and ask them this question. It’s pretty clear this is iteration #1. How many in their cohort fit that scenario?

Hiltzik: The COVID strategy that proved lethal in practice

They were some of the most prominent academics in the country. They pushed a devastatingly wrong COVID policy, but they've never admitted their error.
