It’s been a while since I’ve posted to my blog. Have you missed me? After the year I’ve had, there’s been limited space for creating, connecting and promoting. However, my real life beyond writing continues and my interests in related topics occasionally gets some air.

If you know anything about my stories, you’ll know they explore the underbelly of bioethics. For this post I thought I’d do something a little different and invite you to join me in geeking out with a shout out to a non-fiction writer who takes a dive into some real-life bioethics underbellies.

Today I came across this terrific new book by Professor Robert Clancy. COVID and the Corruption of Medical Science. This publication is available as an ebook and paperback. I’ve got mine on order and can’t wait to get it in my warm little hands. It sounds satisfyingly facts-based, apolitical, and may explain why I say the past six or so years has been a bit like whacking my head against a wall.

In the world of science, I am a tiny, inconsequential, minnow. However, Professor Clancy is a premier immunologist and mucosal immunology pioneer, not only in Australia, he’s a preeminent voice of reason with global clout. Having decades of experience at the top of his field, he has written a collection of articles beginning in the early days of the pandemic, and continuing to encompass the unfolding real-world data that emerged over time.

I discovered this book listening to an equally informative interview. I’ll drop the interview link here, but if you’re still asleep to what’s been exposed in the field of science and medicine in recent years, brace for the knowledge slap. If you find it too much, feel free to grab your little blanky and a pillow and snuggle right back up. (Though I’d rather you don’t.)

For the rest of you rebellious fringe sci-fi fans, enjoy the geek out and feel free to comment below.

And keep an eye out for my next post—a shocking confession!
