I am posting some pieces of research on Dr. Birx's scarf

and other interesting things that may turn up more info on her

such as "500 women scientists" groups that are affiliated with STEM monies, and have PODS all over the world.

Worth a digg.

THIS IS JUST RESEARCH pieces, nothing solid

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_movement

A pioneer movement is an organization for children operated by a communist party. Typically children enter into the organization in elementary school and continue until adolescence. The adolescents then typically join the Young Communist League. Prior to the 1990s there was a wide cooperation between pioneer and similar movements of about 30 countries, coordinated by the international organization, International Committee of Children's and Adolescents' Movements (French: Comité international des mouvements d'enfants et d'adolescents, CIMEA), founded in 1958, with headquarters in Budapest, Hungary.

The Pioneer movement was modeled in many aspects on the Scout movement. The two movements share some principles like preparedness and promotion of sports and outdoor skills.

The motto Always prepared! was adapted by the pioneer movement from the Scout Motto.

A member of the movement is known as a Pioneer, with the name stemming from the pioneering activity in Scouting. A neckerchief—typically red, but sometimes light blue—is the traditional item of clothing worn by a pioneer. This tradition was adapted from the Scout uniform.

The Pioneer movement now exists in these countries:

Angola: Agostinho Neto Pioneer Organization

Armenia: Republic of Young Pioneers and Lernamerdz Soviet Pioneers

Belarus: Belarusian Republican Pioneer Organization

Belgium: Pioneers of the Workers Party of Belgium

People's Republic of China: Young Pioneers of China

Cuba: José Martí Pioneer Organization established in 1961.

Cyprus: United Democratic Youth Organisation

Finland: Democratic Union of Finnish Pioneers (Pinskut)

The Czech Republic: Pionýr is a non-political organisation organizing leisure time for children, part of the IFM-SEI.

Laos: the Young Pioneers in Laos are under the Lao People's Revolutionary Youth Union (LPRYU).

Mexico: Pioneers Association "Vicente Lombardo Toledano" of the Partido Popular Socialista

North Korea: Young Pioneer Corps of the Korean Children's Union

Portugal: Pioneiros de Portugal (founded in 1974), connected to the Portuguese Communist Party.

Russia: Pioneers of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation

Moldova: Pioneers of the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova

Ukraine: Pioneers of the Communist Party of Ukraine

Senegal: Mouvement Nationale des Pionniers Senegalese[3]

Spain: Pioneers of the Communist Party of the Basque Homelands

Syria: Baath Party Pioneers

Tajikistan: King Somoni Inheritance

Vietnam: Ho Chi Minh Young Pioneer Organization, established on May 15, 1941[4]

Older children could continue in other communist organizations, but that would typically be done only by a limited number of people.

The communist parties in Russia and other countries continue to run a pioneer organization, but membership tends to be quite limited.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neckerchief

sometimes called a necker, kerchief or scarf, is a type of neckwear associated with those working or living outdoors, including farm labourers, cowboys and sailors. It is most commonly still seen today in the Scouts, Girl Guides and other similar youth movements. A neckerchief consists of a triangular piece of cloth or a rectangular piece folded into a triangle.

The long edge is rolled towards the point, leaving a portion unrolled. The neckerchief is then fastened around the neck with the ends either tied or clasped with a slide or woggle.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_scarf

The red scarf is a neckerchief worn by young pioneers of several countries during the socialist (“communist”) era. In the Soviet Union it was known as pionerskiy galstuk

Blue scarves were also used by youngsters before coming of age to wear the red one, and are still seen in some countries.

It remains in use by the young pioneer organizations of China[1], Vietnam[2], North Korea[3], and Cuba[4], and — unofficially, on occasions — in many other countries[5][citation needed], such as Russia, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Belarus, Ukraine, Finland etc. In China, the scarf is emblematic of blood of revolutionary martyrs, as recalled in Red Scarf Park and the title of Red Scarf Girl by Ji-li Jiang about her experiences during the Cultural Revolution. In Cuba, the scarf is worn by schoolchildren from first to sixth grade.[6]

500 Women Scientists

500 Women Scientists is a non-profit group dedicated to making science open, inclusive, and accessible. To achieve this mission, they work to increase scientific literacy through public engagement, advocate for science and equity, and provide self-identifying women with the tools and support they need to reach their full potential. The organization began with an open letter in November 2016 and was officially recognized as a 501(c)3 in May 2018

500 Women Scientists launched with an open letter signed by 500 women scientists after the United States 2016 presidential election. The letter pledged to speak out not only against policies that go against scientific evidence, but also against inequality, sexism, xenophobia, and other forms of discrimination against marginalized communities. Within two months, the pledge received over fifteen thousand signatures from women and allies in 109 countries.

In concert with the 2017 Women's March, women scientists and supporters who signed the pledge organized themselves into groups to march together. The local marches became the basis for forming local chapters, or "Pods", where local women scientists meet regularly. Pods function both as a support system and as a vehicle to focus on and organize around issues that resonate in their own communities, in line with 500 Women Scientists core mission and values

Request a Woman Scientist

To increase representation of women on conference panels and in high-profile science journalism stories, 500 Women Scientists launched a Request a Woman Scientist database for self-identifying women with expertise in STEMM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine) fields. The database currently contains over 6,000 women in 104 countries

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/500_Queer_Scientists

The group was founded in San Francisco on 4 June 2018, by Lauren Esposito, an arachnology professor at the California Academy of Sciences

and

Sean Vidal Edgerton, a science illustrator and evolutionary virologist at the Academy;

In the press release announcing its foundation, the organization referenced, as part of its motivation, a 2016 paper in the Journal of Homosexuality that found that, in 2013, more than 40% of respondents to a survey who identified as LGBTQ+ had not revealed that they were to their colleagues. The campaign was inspired by the group 500 Women Scientists; the two groups are separate, but consider themselves to be "informally partnered". At launch, the site contained 50 scientists' stories; within a week this had reached 250, and by 26th June there were 550. The first stories were all written in English.

In June 2019, they held an event with publisher Elsevier to mark World Pride. The site had over 900 profiles by July 2019; in that month, the group was involved in organizing the second LGBTSTEM Day.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math, including Computer Science

Background

In an ever-changing, increasingly complex world, it's more important than ever that our nation's youth are prepared to bring knowledge and skills to solve problems, make sense of information, and know how to gather and evaluate evidence to make decisions. These are the kinds of skills that students develop in science, technology, engineering and math—disciplines

collectively known as STEM. If we want a nation where our future leaders, neighbors, and workers have the ability to understand and solve some of the complex challenges of today and tomorrow, and to meet the demands of the dynamic and evolving workforce, building students' skills, content knowledge, and fluency in STEM fields is essential. We must also make sure that, no matter where children live, they have access to quality learning environments. A child's zip code should not determine their STEM fluency.

Criticism

The focus on increasing participation in STEM fields has attracted criticism. In the 2014 article

"The Myth of the Science and Engineering Shortage" in The Atlantic, demographer Michael S. Teitelbaum

criticized the efforts of the U.S. government to increase the number of STEM graduates, saying that, among studies on the subject, "No one has been able to find any evidence indicating current widespread labor market shortages or hiring difficulties in science and engineering occupations that require bachelor's degrees or higher", and that "Most studies report that real wages in many—but not all—science and engineering occupations have been flat or slow-growing, and unemployment as high or higher than in many comparably-skilled occupations."

Teitelbaum also wrote that the then-current national fixation on increasing STEM participation paralleled previous U.S. government efforts since World War II to increase the number of scientists and engineers, all of which he stated ultimately ended up in "mass layoffs, hiring freezes, and funding cuts"; including one driven by the Space Race of the late 1950s and 1960s, which he wrote led to "a bust of serious magnitude in the 1970s."[95]

IEEE Spectrum contributing editor Robert N. Charette echoed these sentiments in the 2013 article

"The STEM Crisis Is a Myth", also noting that there was a "mismatch between earning a STEM degree and having a STEM job" in the United States, with only around ¼ of STEM graduates working in STEM fields, while less than half of workers in STEM fields have a STEM degree.[96]

Economics writer Ben Casselman, in a 2014 study of post-graduation earnings for FiveThirtyEight, wrote that,

based on the data, science should not be grouped with the other three STEM categories, because, while the other three generally result in high-paying jobs,

"many sciences, particularly the life sciences, pay below the overall median for recent college graduates.
