Bhattacharya is a champion of the people and real science, who vows to 'reform American scientific institutions so that they are worthy of trust again.'

Bhattacharya is a champion of the people and real science, who vows to “reform American scientific institutions so that they are worthy of trust again.”The declaration proposed an approach called “Focused Protection,” which advocated for allowing those at lower risk to resume normal life, implementing strong measures to protect high-risk populations, and reliance on widespread immunity through reliance on natural infection.

President-elect Donald J. Trump said on Tuesday evening that he had selected Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a Stanford physician and economist whose authorship of an anti-lockdown treatise during the coronavirus pandemic made him a central figure in a bitter public health debate, to be the director of the National Institutes of Health.

If confirmed by the Senate, Dr. Bhattacharya would lead the world’s premier medical research agency, with a $48 billion budget and 27 separate institutes and centers, each with its own research agenda, focusing on different diseases like cancer and heart disease. Bhattacharya was secretly blacklisted because he “argued that Covid lockdowns would harm children,” and was thus unable to trend on the platform, Weiss reported in a Twitter thread.On “The Ingraham Angle,” Bhattacharya said the suppression of his voice, which questioned much of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s guidance and the COVID-19 policies, ultimately harmed data, children and the American public.
