2) at some point @MichaelEMann is right. I can’t fit anymore.
3) more on the Carson positive test. He was at the WH election night party.
4) Update—crap, it’s now 51. I don’t know if it will fit on one post anymore.
5) made the 51st name fit! Only people with short names from now on can get Covid in WH for Twitter sake.

Boom. Tomorrow’s NYT cover. @realDonaldTrump, Mitch and Pence are not gonna like this. Please, for their sake, don’t share.

2) While you’re here, here is Mark Meadows with a headache. Read also about Covid patients suffering increase risk of psychiatric illnesses and dementia. It’s not just death that matters, not that #COVID19 death numbers even matter to Trump.
3) Trump WH also ignored all the warnings that a pandemic was coming. They did nothing.

📍MOVE ASIDE ANTIBODY TESTS—Get ready for T-Cell testing for #COVID19 to identify past infection. Unlike antibodies that naturally wane, T-cells persist much longer. Of 70 COVID survivors, T-cell #COVID19 test ID’ed 97% of them, while antibody only 77%. cnn.com/2020/11/10/hea… Image
2) The new T cell testing is awaiting FDA approval. “The data was announced Tuesday at an investors' call for Adaptive Biotechnologies, the company that makes the test. The company did not fund the study and the data has not been published...”
3) “Adaptive is planning to launch its T cell test commercially in late November and plans to apply for an Emergency Use Authorization from the US Food and Drug Administration.”

BREAKING—20% of recovering #COVID19 patients develop mental illness within 90 days, says large US study. Increased *first-time diagnosis* of anxiety, depression & insomnia by 2-fold! And researchers also found significantly higher risks of dementia. 🧵
reuters.com/article/health… Image
2) The study, published in The Lancet Psychiatry journal, analysed electronic health records of 69 million people in US, with 62,000 cases of #COVID19. In the three months following testing positive, 1 in 5 survivors had first time diagnosis of anxiety, depression or insomnia.
3) The study also found that people with a pre-existing mental illness were 65% more likely to be diagnosed with #COVID19 than those without.
Mental health experts said findings add to growing evidence that COVID can affect brain & mind, increasing risk of psychiatric illnesses.

📍FACE SHIELDS NOT GREAT for #COVID19: Costco says wear “mask **or** face shield”—worrisome. Face shields don’t stop airborne aerosols.

“Nearly all of aerosols were coming around the side of shield & reached nearly the same distances as without wearing anything.” says study. 🧵 Image
2) “They are certainly not effective when you are in close contact with someone”

That’s why also CDC doesn’t recommend face shields.

3) The Swiss health authorities have also warned against using face visors instead of masks after an investigation into an outbreak of Covid-19 at a hotel revealed all those infected wore plastic face shields, while those who avoided infection wore masks. bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/kr…

BREAKING—Trump advisor David Bossie (of Citizens United fame, he led that charge), tests positive for #COVID19. He was also former deputy CM for Trump in 2016. On top of Ben Carson, that now makes 51 in WH orbit in last 6 weeks.
2) All hail @JenniferJJacobs for her WH Covid outbreak reporting.
3) this is on top of the Carson positive test. I bet many are linked to the WH election night party that Meadows attended without mask and tested positive day after.

BREAKING: HUD Secretary Ben Carson tested positive for #COVID19 Monday morning. He attended the WH election night party that WH chief of staff Mark Meadows also attended *without a mask* even though also COVID positive.
2) Carson’s deputy chief of staff says he's "in good spirits & feels fortunate to have access to effective therapeutics which aid and markedly speed his recovery."

➡️ sounds like Carson is gonna get Remdesivir and or Regeneron’s synthetic antibody cocktail. #COVID19
3) Meadows had tested positive Wednesday after Tuesday election night party without mask. That’s the party Carson was at. google.com/amp/s/slate.co…
