#EXCLUSIVE: VP Pence vowed that all Grand Princess cruise passengers would be tested for #COVID19 after arriving at Travis AFB. But 2/3 of 858 passengers there have declined to be tested & they say federal health officials are actually DISSUADING testing
sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
Spoke to passengers who declined testing & they say would have done it if available when 1st arrived. But there were not enough tests, not enough trained personnel & not enough protective gear...getting tested now, they say, could jeopardize release date
sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
White House said they offered #COVID19 testing to all passengers, but can’t force testing. Two law professors disagree. Say feds have legal power to compel testing based off Supreme Court ruling about forced vaccinations during smallpox outbreak in 1908

Welp, one of the big takeaways from #PGE new wildfire mitigation plan is: Many more people will likely be impacted by power shutdowns during dangerous fire weather conditions...and not just people in high threat areas mercurynews.com/2019/02/06/big… $PCG
Under last year's power shutdown policy, 570K customers could have been impacted by deenergization event; new plan would widen to 5.4M customers, about a third of #PGE entire system who could be impacted mercurynews.com/2019/02/06/big… $PCG
That increase in affected customers is because in past #PGE refused to shut down transmission lines 70,000 volts or higher because it would impact wider swaths of customers than area in fire danger; but now open to turn off anything up to 500,000-volt line mercurynews.com/2019/02/06/big…

Big day for #PGE in court today as federal judge will weigh harsh sanctions against the utility as part of the company’s probation terms following the San Bruno explosion mercurynews.com/2019/01/30/fed…
Packed courtroom this morning for #PGE hearing; Cal Fire, CPUC, electrical worker union, even Sonoma and Napa counties filed briefs telling judge his probation strengthening proposals go too far; we'll see what judge says to that mercurynews.com/2019/01/30/fed…

#COVIDー19 crisis response is another area where the performance of Prime Minister #ImranKhan's cabinet is inadequate & late resulting in a rapid surge in #coronavirus cases+infections. His TV address was unimpressive. @ImranKhanPTI can learn from @realDonaldTrump & @NYGovCuomo.
Unlike #USA+#Europe, #Pakistan is right next door to two epicenters of #COVIDー19 spread: #China & #Iran. China was initially late but later took impressive steps to contain the spread, incl quarantining #Pakistani citizens. Unlike Iran where Pk citizens visited in large numbrs.
What steps did PM #ImranKhan take for a #CoronaFreePakistan when it was obvious #Pakistan faced #COVIDー19 spread threat from #Iran; & when it became obvious that almost every neighbor incl #Iraq+#Turkey+#Gulf traced 1st cases to Iran & when #Tehran failed to warn neighbors?

cw: coronavirus, pandemic, death.

Coronavirus real talk time. Within 3 weeks, we will be seeing videos of overwhelmed hospitals in the US, with hundreds of deaths.

Here’s the director of one of the country’s busiest hospitals sounding the alarm. Thread 👇🏼
Y’all remember that I was active in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria in 2017.

EVERYTHING the Trump administration did to your fellow citizens in Puerto Rico, he’s doing again with coronavirus — to all of us.

The lying. Lack of preparedness. Blaming the victims. The corruption. Donald Trump tweet from 13 September 2018: “3000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit Puerto Rico. When I left the Island, AFTER the storm had hit, they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths. As time went by it did not go up by much. Then, a long time later, they started to report really large numbers, like 3000...”
Hong Kong and Vietnam have done an incredible job at limiting the progress of #COVID19. Remarkable, given their proximity to, and travel with China.

They rapidly deployed the WHO’s recommended testing kit for widespread testing, with self-quarantine.

The US? We really messed up Screenshot of a news headline: “[Op-ed] Why Vietnam has been the world’s number 1 country in dealing with coronavirus<br /> <br /> While other countries have dithered, Vietnam’s response to Covid-19 has been swift, sharp and effective”

A back-of-the-enveloppe thread on the spread of #COVIDー19:

1) HUBEI province (ca 60 million people) has had close to 3000 deaths. It still has an active caseload of ca 20 K patients & some 130 new cases a day, & ca 30 daily deaths. So I expect up to 3500 deaths, assuming...1/9
...a winding down of the epidemic there by end March. If,stress IF, the rest of the world became like Hubei (0.8%of world population), the death toll could be of ca 400 K with a cumulative number of cases of ca 8 million.This possibly sets the outer bounds of a Covid pandemic 2/n
Of course, active measures in the world may prevent Hubei-scale outbreaks so this is unlikely to happen (conversely, late but tough measures in Hubei have also limited Covid's spread in that province).

2) GOOD NEWS though in rest of mainland China ( minus Hubei, HK,Macau): 3/n

#NEW We have matched up county-level preferences for music genres with 2016 election results and have found the👏 key👏 data 👏 that capture the cultural currents that made Obama supporters flip to Donald Trump:

liking hard rock music.

THREAD.

economist.com/graphic-detail…
The data we have (from @VividSeats) is truly incredible. In every county, we have a record of the share of concert/etc ticket sales that fall into each genre in 2015/19. Here's that map (with each county scaled for population). Cities like rap/hip hop. Rural areas like country.
The music genre that most correlates with Republican vote share is, as you might expect, country music. A preference for "New Age" music (whatever that is) and Rock are also "red". Rap, Hip Hop & R&B, as mentioned, are "blue" music—as is liking alternative artists or Latin music.
