Beware of Chinese collaborators bearing gift authorships!

Beware of Chinese collaborators bearing gift authorships!
As a young Wunderkind, Josef Penninger discovered the ACE2 receptor. Now he invented the cure for the coronavirus which will work in his hands where Big Pharma failed. He was never found guilty of research misconduct and never retracted a paper. Dr Penninger is a Genius making a COVID-19 vaccine.
University of Zurich and its Unispital has so much trouble with their medical professors right now. I wish to help.
Euroimmun founder Winfried Stöcker replies to criticism of his company’s publications: “Dr. Elisabeth Bik’s observations are not suitable to bring us into disrepute.”
EuroImmun is a German diagnostics biotech, founded by the most charming Professor Stöcker and recently sold to PerkinElmer. Elisabeth Bik checked some of company’s papers, many coauthored by Stöcker himself, and she raised questions. The company says this “testifies to a lack of knowledge of the matter”.
The prion researcher Adriano Aguzzi used to describe his Pubpeer critics as “lowlifes”, and himself as a victim of a lynch mob. But after Elisabeth Bik helped him find even more mistakes in his papers, Aguzzi changed his stance.
Are you excited about the massive research integrity hypocrisy around China’s first immunologist Xuetao Cao? Smut Clyde will explain to you the Flaw Cytometry and other naughtiness they uncovered, led by Elisabeth Bik.
The immunologist Xuetao Cao is one of the most important scientists in China. The Academician and General is also Chairman of research integrity of all Chinese research. Now Elisabeth Bik scrutinised his papers.
Yehuda Shoenfield is either a genius or a quack of autoimmunity research, depending on which side you stand in the antivax debate. He is also apparently a plagiarist, even Wikipedia is not safe. And this is why he is now a Member of Israel Academy of Sciences.
Arturo Casadevall is probably the most recognized expert for research integrity, author of many peer reviewed papers on that topic. But now his own publications on microbiology and immunity are under scrutiny.
