"Dangerously and absurdly, political leaders have been using the low number of confirmed cases as the evidence of success when it is actually a measure of our blindness."—@MJGerson

"how long it took to cut through red tape to try to save lives in an outbreak" --@HelenChuMD @UWMedicine
“What they [@CDCgov and @US_FDA] said on that phone call very clearly was cease and desist to Helen Chu. Stop testing.” nytimes.com/2020/03/10/us/…

Disappointing that @nytimes didn't credit @amymaxmen @nature @naturenews who was all over the #CDCgov and @US_FDA obstruction of #COVID19 testing by @HelenChuMD @UWMedicine @UWVirology @seattleflustudy 1 week earlier

A new @ScienceMagazine paper is the best evidence yet for the people without symptoms ("undocumented," i.e. with no or mild Sx, not tested) driving the spread #COVID19

If anyone questioned the value of social and physical distancing, this ought to help squelch it.

Why broad and random #COVID19 testing, not just for those sick, provides critical insights
wsj.com/articles/its-d… by Neeraj Sood @USCPrice @SchaefferCenter
In South Korea, it helped us learn that the young are frequently without symptoms but carriers, a key basis of spread
We're so far behind on testing in the US that its impact will be reduced vs the best model but that doesn't mean we shouldn't proceed
propublica.org/article/how-so… by @SteveEngelberg @propublica

Yet we have our @Surgeon_General @JeromeAdamsMD spreading misinformation that South Korea was able to do this because it is an authoritarian state @foxandfriends (Thx @AlexWardVox @voxdotcom, via @carlzimmer)

For #COVID19, we'll take all the good news we can.
Lack of transmission of virus in 4 pregnancies to the newborns (1st report on this important question)
@FrontPediatrics frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…
Actually it's the 2nd report, 1st was @TheLancet with lack of vertical transmission in 9 pregnancies (1 week ago, I'd missed that one) thelancet.com/action/showPdf…
So it's some good news replicated.
And a 3rd report of 10 pregnancies without vertical transmission atm.amegroups.com/post/view/clin… thanks @sgdambrauskas
The numbers are still small (23 total) but encouraging

"the lack of Russian reaction to the U.S.’s December 2016 sanctions. There was a lot of speculation regarding the minimal response from the Russians which was not what was expected..."

A really heartbreaking sight. The sacrifices from health workers in China have been immense.
This is the context of that video, reportedly related to the death of hospital director Liu Zhiming.
This is making the rounds, claiming to be Chinese escaping the country into Vietnam. I'm almost certain that it is misrepresented, and that this is not true.

Think someone is lying to you?

First check to see if they bothered to add any variability whatsoever in the model they are using to supposedly report actual numbers from a complex system.

#coronavirus
The mortality rate they want you to report is the - 0 day rate: Today's Confirmed Death total minus Today's Confirmed Case total.

This has not varied outside of 1/10th of 1% in the last 5 prints.

#coronavirus
But even a minor adjustment of a few days in the mortality rate paints an entirely different picture

Seit Jahren untersuche ich die US-Rechte: lese ihre Texte, analysiere polit. Entscheidungen, untersuche ihre Biographien - was man halt so macht. Ein Muster begegnet mir ständig: Die permanente Selbst-Viktimisierung, die im krassen Konstrast zur polit. und ökon. Macht steht. 1/
Eve Fairbanks beschreibt nun in einem exzellenten Artikel in der #WashingtonPost, wie weit diese spezifisch konservative Opfer-Rhetorik zurückreicht und wie sie im Antebellum South verwendet wurde, um Sklaverei zu verteidigen. washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/0… 2/
Denn die Südstaatler sprachen nicht etwa von #slavery: "they anointed themselves the defenders of reason, free speech and civility." Als die wahren Verteidiger von Minderheitenrechten und Freiheit (der Sklavenhalter, wohlgemerkt.) 3/

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn President Trump’s D.C. hotel had so many customers at a networking event for lobbyists last night, that when the hotel's boss went to boast about his “#success” on Twitter, panorama mode was required to show all the patrons.

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn Russian-funded RT America personalities celebrated “great things” at the Trump Hotel DC. It’s unclear if they were referring to the ease w/which staffers for foreign gov't-funded media can get cash to the U.S. president or something else.
