2/Coronavirus in the Global South
3/One reason we started testandtrace.com was to try to help leaders understand what the exit strategy is.
4/Video reviews of papers are so kewl
5/Useful, data-filled thread on how COVID spreads, who transmits it, who gets it, etc.
6/More antibody tests coming.
7/Oh by the way, this is why #TestAndTrace only needs to trace CLOSE contacts, not casual contacts. You don't need to track down everyone who rode the same bus. This is not measles.
8/Why letting coronavirus spread through our population won't prompt it to mutate into a less deadly form.
9/Some data suggesting that yes, antibodies do successfully fight off COVID-19. But not definitive yet, so don't get cocky!
10/Remember the IHME model? It just doubled its projected U.S. deaths.
12/As the U.S. epidemic has shifted from NY to places that don't report on weekends, day-of-the-week effects have become more pronounced. Use weekly cases & deaths to avoid these predictable rises and falls.
13/Why do we think it's safe to reopen when there are 30,000 new cases a day?
14/We don't yet know where SARS-CoV-2 came from, but scientists are on the case.
15/More on coronavirus biology
16/Once more for those in the back: Contact tracing is mostly about humans calling other humans up, NOT about scary-scary privacy-invading surveillance apps. In fact, those apps might not even be useful.
18/Why that IHME model keeps being wrong, and why you should be skeptical of what these sorts of models predict.
19/A thread of advice for Ohio on reopening its economy.
20/China is still covering up coronavirus-related stuff.
21/More on HCQ, if you still care!
22/Technical details of antibody tests.
23/Have red states been lulled into thinking that coronavirus won't hit them?
25/Flattening the curve wasn't enough. We need to crush the curve.
26/Once again: Lockdown + #TestAndTrace is much much much much better than "herd immunity". And it works.
27/It's not a question of "the economy or people's lives".
If the virus is unleashed, people are not going to go out and shop.
If the virus is unleashed, people are not going to go out and shop.
28/Antibody tests are improving.
29/The U.S. is really an international standout in terms of how bad our coronavirus response has been.
30/A tool to help you access your COVID-19 risk:
31/And that's all for today, folks! Come back tomorrow for more Coronavirus Tweets from the Experts!
