What do you get when you juxtapose Donald Trump, RFK, Jr., and Jayanta "Bhattacharya and public health?
You get the National Institutes for Health cancelling Sickle Cell Anemia research because it is, "DEI."
Because when you have legitimate health issues that largely only effect black and brown people, trying to help them is DEI.
My guess is that they will cancel research on Tay-Sach's disease next, since only Jews get it.
I consider myself a cynic, but this was beyond my wildest imaginings.
A doctor says she’s scrambling to figure out how she’ll continue her work helping sickle cell disease patients after the National Institutes of Health cancelled her $750,000 research grant, citing diversity, equity and inclusion and divisiveness as a factor.
Sickle cell disease affects about 100,000 people in the U.S., and 90% of patients are Black, according to NIH.
It’s a blood disorder that causes excruciating pain. Patients' red blood cells are shaped like sickles and can’t flow properly. That causes lifelon7g issues such as strokes, lung problems and infections.
