It would be more polite of you if you restrained yourself to answer what I actually said, instead of answering your interpretation of my words.

I will say again for clarity:

1) Covid is no longer a top priority, some re-allocation of research moneys is normal and to be expected.

2) I expect some level of investment to continue, but I consider reasonable to suppose that given the circumstances the current level may not be justifiable anymore and requires some down ramping.

Of course, it may be the case that those cuts are going to affect you personally, which would explain why you considered my rather bland comment as a "strong response".

And in the remote case that this is the concrete situation, I apologize for my insensitivity.

You are giving the Trump admin too much credit, it's not about post-COVID re-allocation of funds, it's another broad stroke action without caring for the consequences: https://bsky.app/profile/jeremymberg.bsky.social/post/3lla4p...
