Virologist who explained Covid faces redundancy

Dr Chris Smith is a "public understanding of science" fellow at the
university
A virologist who helped explain Covid-19 to a worldwide audience of
millions has accused the University of Cambridge of "amnesia" as it
threatened to make his post redundant.

Dr Chris Smith heads up the university-based The Naked Scientists
podcast, which helps the public understand and engage with science,
technology and medicine - including during coronavirus.

He said the university wanted to "kill me off" to cut costs, despite >>>>> helping to put the university "on the map" during the pandemic.

A university spokesman said: "The University of Cambridge is currently >>>>> consulting with Dr Chris Smith about the future of his role within the >>>>> university."

Dr Smith's job is split across the university - where he is a "public >>>>> understanding of science fellow" - and at Addenbrooke's Hospital in
Cambridge. His university-funded clinical work as a consultant
virologist is at risk by default.

The Naked Scientists, which he began in 2001, has racked up 150 million >>>>> downloads and produces several hours of content each week, with Dr Smith >>>>> and his team questioning scientists and doctors - often from the
university - on a variety of subjects.

Dr Smith also appears as an expert on TV and radio, including BBC 5Live, >>>>> BBC Radio 2 and the BBC's News Channel.

"I've been doing this for 25 years and they're going to kill it off, and >>>>> kill me off, when I've been devoting my life to this," he added.

During the pandemic he gave more than 2,000 interviews to help audiences >>>>> understand what was happening and why, and said he still received
messages from people who found him "reassuring and helpful".

"I think the university has amnesia; I worked for 15 hours a day, stuff >>>>> going out to millions of people, on BBC Breakfast every Saturday, and I >>>>> never got so much as an email from the university to say thanks.

"All the kudos would have otherwise gone to Oxford, Imperial College and >>>>> University College London - it put Cambridge on the map and they were >>>>> enormous beneficiaries of that.

"I know the strong impact of what I do, but they don't measure it - they >>>>> will be assessing me based on research papers in journals and the
reaction to that," he added, describing himself as "invisible".

He said he had called for meetings with the university and not had a >>>>> response, adding: "They are willing to cut two jobs in one fell swoop >>>>> and not come to the table; it's not acceptable."

Since making the news public he has received hundreds of messages and >>>>> emails in support, with many also urging the university to rethink.

"People are saying really strong stuff; they all think it's a terrible >>>>> idea," he said.

In a statement sent to the BBC, the university said The Naked Scientists >>>>> podcast was a separate entity that it "neither owned, controlled nor had >>>>> any direct influence over".

Dr Smith argued Cambridge was "fully behind the project and its output" >>>>> and had hired his radio producer, whose job was also at risk.

A Cambridge University Hospitals spokesperson, on behalf of
Addenbrooke's, said: "As his employer, the University of Cambridge is >>>>> currently consulting with Dr Chris Smith, and we await the outcome of >>>>> those discussions."

In the interim, we are 100% prepared/protected in the "full armor of
GOD" (Ephesians 6:11) which we put on as soon as we use Apostle Paul's >>>> secret (Philippians 4:12). Though masking is less protective, it helps >>>> us avoid the appearance of doing the evil of spreading airborne
pathogens while there are people getting sick because of not being
100% protected. It is written that we're to "abstain from **all**
appearance of doing evil" (1 Thessalonians 5:22 w/**emphasis**).

Meanwhile, the only *perfect* (Matt 5:47-8 ) way to eradicate the
COVID-19 virus, thereby saving lives, in the UK & elsewhere is by
rapidly (i.e. use the "Rapid COVID-19 Test" ) finding out at any given >>>> moment, including even while on-line, who among us are unwittingly
contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in order to
"convince it forward" (John 15:12) for them to call their doctor and
self-quarantine per their doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic.
Thus, we're hoping for the best while preparing for the worse-case
scenario of the Alpha lineage mutations and others like the Omicron,
Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota, Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations
combining via slip-RNA-replication to form hybrids like "Deltamicron"
that may render current COVID vaccines/monoclonals/medicines/pills no
longer effective.

Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry (

) and hope you, Michael, also have a healthy appetite too.

So how are you ?

I am wonderfully hungry!

While wonderfully hungry in the Holy Spirit, Who causes (Deuteronomy
8:3) us to hunger, I note that you, Michael, are rapture ready (Luke
17:37 means no COVID just as eagles circling over their food have no
COVID) and pray (2 Chronicles 7:14) that our Everlasting (Isaiah 9:6)
Father in Heaven continues to give us "much more" (Luke 11:13) Holy
Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) so that we'd have much more of His Help to
always say/write that we're "wonderfully hungry" in **all** ways
including especially caring to "convince it forward" (John 15:12) with
all glory (Psalm112:1) to GOD (aka HaShem, Elohim, Abba, DEO), in
the name (John 16:23) of LORD Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

Laus DEO !

Thank you for noting that I have no COVID.

Just please do likewise as our LORD Jesus & I have done for you,
Michael, and http://go.WDJW.net/ConvinceItForward (John 15:12) to be https://bit.ly/Wonderfully_Hungrier more blessed by GOD right now
