There absolutely is a general issue about suppressing "true research results", as with government scientists who have been forbidden from speaking when that research opposes the interests of politicians (for one example, "Government Scientist Blocked from Talking About Climate and Wildfires" at https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/government-scient... ).

However, this doesn't appear to be true search result.

If it is indeed an erroneous conclusion published in a newsletter by JH students, and people implied ("Johns Hopkins published a study") that it was actual research result published by JH staff, then is there anything JH can do to suppress falsehoods that wouldn't be interpreted by the uninformed as heavy handed censorship?
