Ordinarily I am a big fan of @theins.press and specifically of their reporting on dirty Russian chemistry. This reporting, however, contains a small, but highly important red herring. This likely does not entirely invalidate the findings, but impacts the quality of evidence. A short 🧵: #ChemSky

I for one believe it is fully justified that we pay solid money for the thorough quality checks for-profit publishers provide to us every day
