The 2009 paper attracted a huge amount of attention when it came out, as it claimed to have discovered a cause for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in the form of a murine (mouse) retrovirus. The 2009 paper was her only one in that prestigious journal, and as you’ll see from the link, it was subsequently retracted. Nor has she published anything since 2012. Between gaining her PhD thesis in 1993 and publishing in Science in 2009, Mikovits published about 40 papers (many with a small number of citations), which is not a huge output for someone described in the terms Kennedy used. However, I searched more widely using Google Scholar, which helpfully includes the number of citations for scientific articles in addition to all the usual details. (My blog buddy Grant Jacobs wrote several posts on her research back in 2011, when a paper in published two years earlier in the journal Science started to attract a lot of attention see here, & here, for example.) In the video she’s described as being “the most accomplished scientist in her generation”, which is a pretty sweeping claim and should be easily substantiated if correct.īut the source of this statement appears to be from a website run by R.F.Kennedy, Jnr, a site which actively opposes vaccination. The “Plandemic” trailer focuses on statements by Dr Judy Mikovits. They’ve commented that it looks and sounds pretty ‘sciencey’ but wanted another opinion. And I’ve had friends ask me what I think of it. In the last couple of days I’ve seen a lot of individuals and pages share links to a trailer for “Plandemic”.
