WHERE WAS THE EDITOR IN CHIEF OF SCIENCE WHEN DONALD TRUMP WAS LYING TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE?

Abstract

On or around September 15, 2020, in a book by Bob Woodward, it was revealed that back in February, 2020, the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump was aware and understood that SARS-COV-2, the virus that is the etiologic agent of COVID-19 was highly contagious and deadly, but chose to "down play" the threat and not reveal the bad news to the American people. Donald Trump not only "downplayed" the bad news but lied to the American People by stating that COVID 19 was just a flu from China and that by April 2020 with the warmth of spring, SARS-COV-2 would "just go away". The consequence of Donald Trump's lie is the death of more than 200,000 Americans (still counting) and over seven million infected individuals in the USA. On or around September 11, 2020, the Editor in Chief of Science wrote an editorial in which he castigated Donald Trump for lying to the American people and for demoralizing the scientific community. A legitimate question that must be asked is: Where was the Editor in Chief of Science back in January and February 2020. Was it not his job to know about SARS-COV-2 when the whole sequence of the SARS-COV-2 genome was published in well renowned "scientific journals" and deposited in Sequence Data Banks openly without interference from the Chinese Government? What about the so-called experts and pundits, including the Directors of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Federal Drug Administration (FDA) that chose to ignore SARS-COV-2. It is submitted that the Editor in Chief of Science and the other so-called experts and pundits are guilty of derelict of duty and must resign from their respective positions. It is also submitted that while Donald Trump can be excused because he is an uneducated and imbecilic person with the scientific knowledge of a five-year-old child, the so-called experts and pundits cannot be pardoned.
