Here is some high-quality information about COVID-19 from a Stanford Medical School researcher, Michael Lin, MD, PhD, in the form of a slide presentation.

“CDC created a test requiring a slow RT-PCR reaction on a specific model of machine to be run overnight, not designing the right primers, and not realizing this for a month.”
“This was both strategically (using 30-year-old technology) and tactically (designing wrong primers) incompetent.
I would expect most graduate students to do better.”
“FDA had stringent rules on testing: approved only the (initially flawed) CDC test, refused working tests from WHO and other countries (cnn.com/2020/03/12/asi…), and even required CDC to retest results of other labs
(propublica.org/article/the-fd…)”
“It’s clear that kids get less sick if at all. Why doesn’t the CDC say so? It won’t hurt to tell the truth! If you provide such lousy information, people will stop trusting you.”
“To protect yourself, sanitize your hands immediately before eating and immediately after touching things touched by others to avoid getting viruses.
To protect others, use clean hands to touch others’ things or when handling things to others.”
“It is fine to go out, buy essentials, get takeout, if you are responsible about taking precautions against transmission. It is also fine to go to your workplace, if you work primarily alone and can avoid large gatherings and can carry out the same hygiene procedures.”
“No need to worry about supplies.
The workforce is not threatened.
You don't need to buy everything in sight.
This is not the zombie apocalypse.”
