An interesting analogy of pandemic evolution
Why are the models considering best case/worst case with basically no middle ground?
In words here
Basically there are 2 different possible outcomes:
under control/not under control
New Zealand/USA
And when we’re talking modelling, it’s important to consider first what we’re talking about: the best case scenario or the worst.
IHME model (that predicts 66k deaths in the UK) is a *best case* scenario

@FT on my timeline this last week
(Sponsored) "Coronavirus - Is Europe losing Italy?"
(Sponsored) "Lockdown fatigue hits as Europe enforces coronavirus restrictions"
This partial side of the story 👇

Do I see a "EU bad, UK govt's policies good" pattern?
Maybe it's me -It's just that the sponsored articles I see everyday, &I feel like @FT is telling me Europe is about to crumble because it lets countries down & didn't wait to enforce restrictions like UK govt did &there was trust but not anymore.
Not used to that kind of coverage
Also @ft "Is Europe losing Italy?" is one of the most ridiculous headlines I've ever seen.
Europe is a continent if you think one of its country can be lost you need to talk to a geologist ASAP
(Seriously what's going on with you?)

There is *no guarantee* immunity can last (&no idea how long), so antibody tests are *not* a priority
Right now all efforts should be on boosting swab testing capacity&accuracy to know who is sick
&ITM spend useless tests money on UBI instead

I am tired of policies built on assumptions (do you hear me @matthancock?)
They must be based on *facts*
Fact 1: We know nothing. It'll take weeks if not months. ITM let's stop considering bets like "herd immunity" or "get back to normal" could be a valid option. Not a given.
Fact 2: What we can do is slow down the virus spread as much as possible, as the less people dead, the better. (Now that should be a given)
The tests needed here are swab tests. Knowing that 1 is generally not enough. That virus hides well. Focus on that. Test/track/isolate/treat
