Opinion (STAT, 27 April 2020) - Scientists who express different views on Covid-19 should be heard, not demonized

Title:
Scientists who express different views on Covid-19 should be heard, not demonized

Authors:

STAT, 27 April 2020

From the opinion piece:
"When major decisions must be made amid high scientific uncertainty, as is the case with Covid-19, we can’t afford to silence or demonize professional colleagues with heterodox views. Even worse, we can’t allow questions of science, medicine, and public health to become captives of tribalized politics. Today, more than ever, we need vigorous academic debate."
