    • There was a respect for scientific expertise and medical evidence under previous presidents that has been lost since Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took over HHS.
      Yes, we've always had imperfect presidents who have made mistakes. But there was always, at a minimum, a respect for scientific expertise and medical evidence. All of that went out the window when Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took over HHS.

    • Dr. Erica Schwartz's mindset suggests she may prioritize job security over public health.

      As of today, August 20, a CDC webpage still states that "'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim," an atrocious, unscientific change that Secretary Kennedy insisted be made during his tenure.

    • Dr. Jay Bhattacharya prioritizes maintaining his status over public service.

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

Where they publish

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
