I'm a science and medical writer curious about the world. I like to share what I find out. I also write for kids, teens and specialty audiences. Remember Ask Pippa in the Toronto Star? That's me. Also Medscape, Medical Post, CHN, Globe&Mail, Vice, etc

The article has this line. "recalibrating contributions to a pre-pandemic scale." Could it be the idea is to cut some COVID stuff, but continue supporting other infectious diseases? Just wondering if that's the rationale? Not saying it's right or anything.
