He had his work delayed 7 months due to politics, and then ignored while watching the world go mad, claiming to be following the science, when it was all a "timeline" trick.
I think it's important to understand his story as an irreproachable scientist that, it appears, has spent 16 years studying 72 studies, and whose expertise should have been #1 in the world (or high up). Instead, he had to give up on "science communication" because the media was purposefully angling for a narrative, and coming to the opposite conclusions after talking to him, and using his name as a veneer of legitimacy.
A really good case study in disinformation could be made out of this story.
