Some of best work I’ve ever had the pleasure to do (and certainly the coolest award I ever received!) was working with the CDC to identify the novel multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children during the height of the pandemic. Sad to see the CDC gutted today. We will be sicker and worse off.

Chernobyl did a brilliant job of demonstrating why ideology must face scrutiny, or we all suffer. "When the truth offends, we lie and lie until we can no longer remember it is even there, but it is still there. Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth."

Private Eye once again showing the majority of Anglophone media how it's done.
PRIVATE EYE
DONALD TRUMP
AN APOLOGY

IN COMMON with all other media organisations, we may in the past have given the impression that we thought Mr Trump wasa sleazy, deranged, orange-faced man-baby who was a threat to democracy and who should be in jail rather than the White House.
We now realise, in the light of his return to supreme power, that he is in fact a political colossus, the voice of sanity, a champion of liberty, a model of probity and the saviour of the Western world. He is also slim, handsome and young. We would like to apologise unreservedly for any confusion caused by our previous statements and thank President Trump for his kind invitation to give him 94 million pounds to attend his inauguration event.
