As a scientist, I’m surrounded by scientists all the time so I often forget that most people do not have a scientist friend or family member in their lives.
You don’t get to see that scientists are people too, we get taken by surprise by pandemics, we have things we don’t know..

Many of the scientists I know have been working to the point of burnout over the past year in response to the pandemic.
This is different from the actually very few (a handful of) scientists who bear some responsibility on the topic of the #OriginsOfCovid

If you talk to a scientist friend, they can go to town on all the problems we face in science today. There’s a lot wrong with academia & healthcare.
Despite all these problems, we still know that science is essential for society to function. That’s why many of us are scientists.
