Verbatim

“The proposed trial reeks of neocolonialism”
Professor of global health and public policy, Duke University · Medical ethics & regulation · bbc.co.uk · 5 Nov 2026 · Read the article
“By focusing entirely on one human being and by calling him all sorts of names, including 'evil', and by calling for him to be jailed, it abdicates Republicans' own responsibility in the US response to the pandemic, which was under President Trump. I think that this is all aimed at riling up the base ahead of the midterms and at washing their hands of any culpability themselves in the mass death event of Covid.”
