In the last decade Open Science principles, such as Open Access, study preregistration, use of preprints, making available data and code, and open peer review, have been successfully advocated for and are being slowly adopted in many different research communities. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic many publishers and researchers have sped up their adoption of some of these Open Science practices, sometimes embracing them fully and sometimes partially or in a sub-optimal manner. In this article, we express concerns about the violation of some of the Open Science principles and its potential impact on the quality of research output. We provide evidence of the misuses of these principles at different stages of the scientific process. We call for a wider adoption of Open Science practices in the hope that this work will encourage a broader endorsement of Open Science principles and serve as a reminder that science should always be a rigorous process, reliable and transparent, especially in the context of a pandemic where research findings are being translated into practice even more rapidly.

开放科学挽救生命：COVID-19大流行的教训

在过去的十年中，诸如开放获取，研究预注册，使用预印本，提供数据和代码以及进行开放的同行评审等开放科学原则已得到成功提倡，并在许多不同的研究社区中逐渐得到采用。为了应对COVID-19大流行，许多出版商和研究人员加快了对某些开放式科学实践的采用，有时甚至完全采用，有时甚至是部分或次优。在本文中，我们对某些开放科学原则的违反及其对研究成果质量的潜在影响表示关注。我们提供了在科学过程的不同阶段滥用这些原则的证据。我们呼吁广泛采用开放科学实践，希望这项工作将鼓励对开放科学原理的广泛认可，并提醒人们科学应该始终是一个严格的过程，可靠和透明的，尤其是在大流行的情况下将研究成果更快地转化为实践。我们在https://osf.io/renxy/提供所有数据和脚本。
