2/Big outbreak in Latin America
3/How coronavirus can attack the gut.
4/How coronavirus might have come from batty batty bats
5/The virus can live on the outside of your used surgical mask for a week!
6/Fairly esoteric debate among epidemiologists. I'm reminded of what it must have been like for people to watch macroeconomic blog debates in 2011. Except economists are meaner.
7/Some people have claimed that smoking protects against coronavirus, but this paper presents evidence that smoking makes it worse.
8/Andy Slavitt explains why we need to prepare for the second wave NOW.
9/A one-tweet summary of lots and lots of coronavirus papers.
10/Avoid parties.
(But then, you're a Twitter Person, so parties probably avoid you!!)

11/Some signs that the U.S. epidemic is subsiding at a faster rate (note that reopening could reverse this).

18/How is the Control Group doing?
19/An important thread on reopening criteria
21/NYC's outbreak is subsiding. The rest of the country as a whole...not so much.
22/The U.S. needs to ramp up vaccine manufacturing capability ahead of time. We don't want to repeat our colossal failures with regards to testing and PPE back in March.
23/Of course Trump is going to try to monkey with the vaccine development process, and of course it's not going to end well.
25/An expert talk on how to detect and quash outbreaks.
26/Which coronavirus forecasting models have been the most accurate?
27/Oooh, a resource laying out all the candidate COVID-19 treatments and vaccines!
SHINY!!
SHINY!!
28/Immunity is real and reinfection probably isn't real. But we don't know how long immunity lasts.
29/Remember, coronavirus spreads most easily in crowded indoor spaces.
30/A thread explaining how, when, and where coronavirus spread through the U.S.
31/Coronavirus forecasts.
32/Another fancy but unproved vaccine technology.
