Big brain time! Havard professor doesn't want Havard to find Covid-19 cure or vaccine because "it will further the narrative of British excelence" and be white supremacist right wing propaganda or some shit like that.

Who cares what White Supremacists will say. All we will do is tell them to go fuck themselves and usual. We need the cure asap.

Oxford, not Harvard; which you misspelled anyways. Twice. With the semantics out of the way though, considering the fact that this girl's area of expertise is "vulnerability and gender", I doubt she'd have much opportunity to sabotage vaccine efforts; she's just virtue signaling to her peers and, in the process, outing herself as an aspiring demagogue.

Message from the Boot here. This is the last time the Boot will simply move a marginally related bit of content out of the Wuhan Virus thread without threadbans for the participants. There is now a reply banner so nobody has any excuse.

I'm sorry, I thought it was on topic to point out that a "vulnerability and gender" professor is unlikely to affect the search for a Corona virus vaccine.

Think of it this way. If it's new information about the virus itself, like an announcement of a vaccine or such, or data about the actual spread, then it belongs in the thread. A good guideline is to consider the Wuhan Virus thread to be a clearinghouse for actual *virus* information. Things that are simply related to it? Different threads.

Protests about the lockdown? There's a thread for that. Conspiracy theories about it? There's a thread for that too. People being idiots? Guess what? Bashing on China over it? There's a thread for that too.

Ideally, if a new post shows up in that thread, it should be actual information about the virus itself. So when people see it, they know it's information about the virus and not something peripherally related to it.

She needs to be fired, diseases plagues all that other shit? They are by their nature A political crisis's. A disease doesnt give a shit about your race, gender or sexual preferences it will kill you either way. The fact that she is putting her political belifes before other peoples lives during a pandemic means she doesnt have the maturity or descression needed to do do her job. She needs to go. Expecially since by her own words she's a threat and security risk for the cure for the disease.
