Tell me you've never had a discussion of a scientific draft manuscript without telling me you've never had a discussion of a scientific draft manuscript twitter.com/PrometheusCHT/…

@gtuckerkellogg Appreciate your efforts

@stgoldst @gtuckerkellogg Unpersuasive to claim this is completely routine. @R_H_Ebright @Bryce_Nickels @Ayjchan

@PrometheusCHT @stgoldst @gtuckerkellogg @R_H_Ebright @Ayjchan From personal experience, I have not once met with the head of a funding agency to discuss a manuscript; I have not once solicited comments from the head of a funding agency about a manuscript; and I include names of all major contributors in the author list or acknowledgements.

@Bryce_Nickels @PrometheusCHT @stgoldst @R_H_Ebright @Ayjchan Is Fauci *only* the head of a funding agency? He was the public leader of NIH response, and a leading physician-scientist. I agree that he should have been acknowledged, but is there a *single* email in which he was acting in his capacity as the "head of a funding agency"?

@gtuckerkellogg @PrometheusCHT @stgoldst @R_H_Ebright @Ayjchan In all emails he is acting as the head of a funding agency.
