The possibility of prohibiting to government scientists to publish in top medical journals worldwide by the Minister of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Junior Yesterday, proposing the creation of “internal” publications by his service – the latter in Trump’s attacks on scientific institutions.

‘We will probably stop publishing articles in Lancet, to New England Journal of Medicine, to Jama [που εκδίδεται από την Αμερικανική Ιατρική Ένωση] And in these other magazines, because they are all corrupt, “Kennedy said during his appearance on the podcast” Ultimate Human “. He also described magazines as under the control of pharmaceutical companies.

The three medical journals he named play a central role in the dissemination of medical research worldwide. Lancet and Jama say they receive more than 30 million annual visits to their websites, while the New England Journal of Medicine reports that it is read in print and electronic form by more than 1 million people each week.

Kennedy has also accused several of the services under the Ministry of Health and Human Services – including the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Food and Drug Administration, and Medicare and Medicaid services – that they are “puppets” for pharmaceuticals.

Regarding his plans for the organization to create his own magazines, Kennedy said that “the top magazines will be made because if you receive funding [από τα Εθνικά Ινστιτούτα Υγείας]you call you a good, legal scientist. “

Adam Gafney, a public health researcher and assistant professor at the Harvard Medical School, wrote in an email that “the ban on researchers funded by NIH to publish in top medical journals and their demand only to publishing RFK. It would instill the taxpayers’ survey. “

He also added that while measures should be taken to ensure that commercial interests do not affect “the conduct or report of science” and that drug approvals are based on a valid science, this is unlikely that Trump’s cuts and public health funding and research and research.

Last week, the government published what it called a “Maha report” which challenged the dominant medical consensus on issues such as vaccines. Medical experts said that some of the reports of the report expanded the limits of science, the Washington Post said, while many parts of the exhibition offered misleading findings of findings in scientific work.

Kennedy’s observations and the report come amid growing concern in the scientific community about the actions of the Trump government that have delayed or disturbed research efforts. In April, the US prosecutor for the Columbia region sent an unusual letter to Chest scientific journal, questioning his editorial policies, triggering concerns about freedom of speech.

NIH funding declined by more than $ 3 billion in the period between President Donald Trump’s swearing -in from January to March, compared to grants issued during the same period last year, and top universities have lost state funding.
