Obviously you can see that both Jeremy and I have deep concerns about our own government and how it has handled the situation and how it has muzzled science. There's no question about that, but on the other hand, we also need to express the strengths of the United States. It's not in the White House; it's in civil society, in whistle-blowers, in the CDC, in the NIH, in our community action. I believe we have robust institutions, a robust civil society. We need to remember that President Trump doesn't speak for all America, and there are many sane voices in the United States that we can listen to.
