It’s hard to get too upset. Science is a global effort, and some scientists working in the US are moving elsewhere.

Just like Katalin Karikó had to leave Hungary for the US to develop mRNA therapies (which are now available in Hungary), new therapies and discoveries will continue to be developed worldwide. They will eventually make their way to the US when (if?) it’s ready to acknowledge the importance of science again. But for humanity it’s not a big deal.
