2/This is a nice follow up to the prior visual abstract we created on an earlier version of the study that you can see here

Interestingly, you can see that most of the "asymptomatic" individuals were actually "pre-symptomatic" as many of us suspected

2/ It's unclear from this report if this is truly "reactivation." The authors mention that patients had symptoms, but it's unclear if these are new symptoms or persistent symptoms.

Is this really reactivation? Or just persistent infection? Or re-infection?
3/ It's all a little unclear, but it will be interesting to see more data

A positive PCR test just detects viral nucleic acid; it doesn't confirm actual live, replicating virus is still present. We don't know if these patients are still infectious (& they're likely not)

#ZOOMintheTimeofCOVID

The more we’re required to meet virtually, the better we need to get at it. I’ve seen some GREAT pro-tips on the technical features of @zoom_us.

But.

I’ve also appreciated some little things that could make #zoomlife easier.

Let's discuss, mmkay?
2/
First, get yourself situated:

Take a pre-login bio break.
Have water/coffee within reach.
Need to take notes? Have what you need handy—phone, tablet, it’s up to you.*

*Confession: Sometimes I have my desktop/other laptop for notes and searches--but don't tell anyone.🤫
3/
Signal vs. noise:

Many “big deal” lectures are becoming virtual. Internet can be shaky depending on location in your house or when too many devices are plugged in. Secure a quiet, reliable space in advance.*

*Note: Quiet is challenging with kids & pets--plan if you can.

1/Type I Interferons may be effective for #COVID19, but more in vitro info needed before moving to human studies

Thx @EmoryMedicine students Morgan Schafer & @mlmargol (creators), @cg_coleman & @tylerdau (editors) & ID fellow @SamInSilico (reviewer)

#EducationInTheTimeofCOVID Image
2/Not too surprising given that this is the biological role of Type I interferons in our body (i.e. our bodies' own antivirals).

Interferons are used for treatment in other diseases but definitely have significant side effects given their lack of specificity.

#EducationInTheTimeOfCOVID #COVID19FOAM Image
2/We are still waiting results of the randomized controlled trials for definitive evidence, but this additional data continues to suggest that HCQ is not helpful for #COVID19

What should breastfeeding look like in COVID (+) mothers? Short answer: we aren't sure.

Long answer:
While there is no evidence yet of SARS-CoV-2 transmission through breast milk, recommendations for breastfeeding mothers w/ #COVID19 depend on clinical course.

This study had no control group, so a randomized-controlled trial is still needed; however, these results contradict prior studies showing substantial benefits with this combination and should call into question the results of that study.
