Let science speak, health expert Tony Fauci pleaded last week. So how was it sidelined?

"Let the science speak", Trump's health advisor Tony Fauci pleaded last week. Roland Pease asks how was it side-lined the past four years.

When US health expert sighed last week that science could now speak again, his sense of relief was shared by many scientists. Since the start of the Trump administration, experts inside the US government's science agencies, and those outside working with them have felt their efforts sidelined. From the coronavirus effort to international relations and the border wall, Roland Pease hears from some of those who have felt shut out of the nation's science conversation these past four years.
