In 2019, some details of Bill Gates' interactions came out in a news story. His spokesperson offered a minimalistic "apology" of sorts for this. And even with the details know at the time, the "apology" was completely insufficient 1/n
Now we find out Gates' interactions with Epstein were much much more extensive that reported in 2019. 2/n
So, basically, Gates' lied to everyone and tried to gloss over his connections with his minimalistic, non detailed "apology." 3/n
I apologize in advance but I have only one thought right now about this:

Fuck you Bill Gates.

Fuck you for supporting, hanging out with, rehabbing the image of, and lying about interactions with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted child rapist and sexual predator. 4/n
And thank you to the reporters who have helped reveal the details here and to people like @xeni and others for helping spread the word about the horrid side(s) of Bill Gates 5/n
And, remember when, in 2016, Bill Gates also sucked up to another sexual predator, Donald Trump and said he could be like JFK? Apparently, Gates likes sexual predators. Awesome. cnbc.com/2016/12/13/aft… 6/n
And see also nytimes.com/2021/05/16/bus… with some information about sexual harassment and other inappropriate behavior by Bill Gates

According to @nytimes tracker, 604 people in USA died from #COVID19 yesterday. Yes, this is lower/day than it has been. But still, that would be ~220,000 deaths over a year. Don't get complacent. We still have work to do in the US. And lots more elsewhere. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
And I note, most analyses suggest the counts we get from trackers like this are undercounts npr.org/sections/coron…
And thus, if the numbers stay like this, #COVID19 would still be the third leading cause of death in the USA cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/l… . Certainly numbers are likely to keep going down, but they are still scarily high

Went for a walk this AM at the @ucdavis Riparian Preserve with @MicrobialFuture. Here are some of the better pics I got jonathaneisen.smugmug.com/2021/2021-5-16… 1/n
These included a bunch of house wrens collecting various bugs - e.g., see jonathaneisen.smugmug.com/2021/2021-5-16… 2/n

I am with @kprather88 here. Really vexed by what @CDCDirector and @CDCgov have done here. I mean, I get the general idea of trying to return to normal and encourage vaccination. But here are some thoughts for why I am still a bit vexed.
1) The vaccines are not fully effective. Therefore, some people who are vaccinated can still get sick, and die. And for some of the vaccines, the percentage of people protected is not insanely high.
2) Some vaccinated people can also still carry and transmit the virus.

So I just got through reading this article on origins of #COVID19 and have one aspect I want to discuss.

The origin of COVID: Did people or nature open Pandora’s box at Wuhan? - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists thebulletin.org/2021/05/the-or… via @BulletinAtomic 1/n
First, I want to say, as I have said many times before, that I think working on the origins and trying to figure out if it came from a lab in some way or from "nature" is an important research area and I think the answer is still not resolved 2/n
And there are a lot of pieces to the story that are still muddled and unclear and need more work 3/n

It was quite warm and sunny today around #DavisCA and alas I did not get out in the AM but managed to head out to #YoloBypass in the early PM. I went on a short walk to a spot I knew would be relatively shady. And along the way saw a few nice things like: 1/n
And then I got to this semi-shady spot with a little water hole and waited. And I was rewarded. First, with an otter swimming by. 2/n
And then what I think was a muskrat waddled by (not 100% sure about the ID). 3/n
