Harvard's Health Fund Drops Like Your Awkward Zoom Call

In a spicy plot twist even Harvard didn’t script, T.H. Chan School of Public Health now faces the sad reality of Vanishing Government Grants. Yes, the same feds who gave out funding like Oprah giving away cars – 'You get a dollar! You get a dollar!' – have suddenly flipped the script. No more carrot, just stick. The government’s new 'strategic withdrawal' means less cash for epidemiology heroes who study microbes instead of memes. No detailed dollar amounts or sunny forecast were shared, but one can imagine meetings filled with awkward silences and mild existential dread in Boston, where the Chan School sits, probably sipping overpriced pumpkin spice lattes while dreaming of better days.
