AstraZeneca just halted their vaccine because of an adverse reaction. This is a really BIG deal.

Super alarming. Breakout of “respiratory” related illnesses in NYC clearly related to #COVID19 viruses.

This is a thread about how to interpret the sudden appearance of respiratory infections in NYC and how that can serve as a model for the rest of the country. 1/9 This is nyc.gov data. Above is screenshot of today’s chart. You can see respiratory emergency visits going out of control—note the massive spike, also note this data is 3 days delayed. Track this daily going forward. 2/9

1. Wrote about the future of self-driving cars (alternative title: ‘Why LiDAR is a Myth’) and why image processing innovation will help it subsume this market (autonomous vehicles). There are system-wide reasons (sw / hw / data processing). stevecheney.com/on-the-future-… 2. Tesla’s and Waymo’s (and startups’) challenges are multi-dimensional. All are racing to get to consumer cars, build the tech, find distribution and avoid strategy taxes. But it’s going to become clear everyone will ditch LiDAR within 3 years.

1/ Excited to share the most profound product Estimote has ever imagined.
