Question to Professor Stephen Macedo
Professor Stephen Macedo is asked about his feelings on elevating MAGA/MAHA propagandists.
He is criticized for his role in a misinformation media ecosystem that distorted the history of the pandemic.
- Dr. Jay Bhattacharya's cancellation of mRNA vaccine research is mentioned as an example of his unfitness to lead the NIH.
- The author expresses curiosity about whether Professor Macedo approves of any of Dr. Bhattacharya's actions as NIH director.
If the country had had more scientific leaders like Dr. Jay Bhattacharya—and more who were willing to listen to him—our policymaking could have been based more on evidence and less on hubris.
This quote is from an article titled "Restoring Trust in Public Health" co-written by Professor Macedo and Francis Lee.
The author argues that during the pandemic, democratic institutions were compromised by politics, partisanship, and dogmatism.
