Excited to share the results of @SWOG 1500, which we are presenting at @ASCO#GU21 & reporting in @TheLancet today. 1st, THANK YOU to patients & families. 2nd, hats off to a tremendous group of investigators. This was a team effort! Wanted to share how it all began: (1/13)
@AirTalk @destmauricemd I know I'm too late, but I just wanted to say that without surveillance testing, we don't have any real data on transmission of disease in schools. Too many children are asymptomatic to do useful contact tracing or symptomatic surveys.
Happy to announce that I'm joining the awesome team at Terray Therapeutics as Director of Oncology. Less happy to announce that I'm leaving New Zealand in a few weeks to do so. It was too exciting of an opportunity to pass up!
@EricTopol@bmj_latest@d_spiegel If I'm reading this correctly (this graph is not ideally presented), SARS CoV2 infection increases risk of death in nearly every adult age group, with ~3x risk for people in their 60s. and of course this doesn't account for morbidity/long covid.
1/ There are various tweets misinterpreting COVID-19 “pre-existing immunity” and making dangerous claims about herd immunity. Since many of those claims refer to our scientific papers, we will reiterate the facts. @SetteLab@ljiresearch@ScienceMagazine@CellCellPress
#UPDATE There are two new connected Covid-19 cases in New Zealand — travellers who recently arrived from the UK. TVNZ reports they were given a special exemption to attend a funeral.
How would this happen and what do our border rules say about it?
