NO EPIDEMIOLOGISTS RISKING Thanksgiving dinner: I answered this NYTimes poll to professional @societyforepi epidemiologists— here is how 635 epidemiologists are spending Thanksgiving and the holidays. Vast majority just keeping to themselves. #COVID19 nytimes.com/2020/11/20/ups… 
2) I think the minority having dinner outside household are doing it “outdoors”. There was a survey of how one would have dinner. And outdoor venue was a clear option. Not clear in this tabulation.
3) NYT makes it clear the 21% doing gatherings are doing it safely outside and with masks. I took the survey, so I know how it was asked—a lot of detailed questions how. They just collapsed it for simplicity.
4) FYI—the ultimate nerd org for epidemiologists is @societyforepi - —NYT polled: “About 8,000 epidemiologists were invited to participate in our survey, which was circulated by email to the membership of the Society for Epidemiologic Research and to individual scientists.”
