@jacobandrewlong I also suspect CR is quite low

[Joe Wasserman 🇵🇸 @JoeWasserman]

@jacobandrewlong Hm that’s all quite reasonable. Too bad undergrads aren’t sufficiently trained or expert enough to produce exceptional research or theory papers

[Joe Wasserman 🇵🇸 @JoeWasserman]

@jacobandrewlong Congratulations on your sufficient power to detect an interaction!

@FoundationDietz @Kieffer_FR I believe you can add people to lists without following them, and then you can easily view those tweets by navigating to the list(s) you’ve added them to

⚠️ I realize that people are tired of taking COVID safety precautions - but the findings from our Long COVID study are serious & I am DEEPLY CONCERNED that we as a nation are completely underestimating the potential long-term impact of repeated infections https://t.co/AU3RvCrqGT

The @RUCSRR at Rutgers made this amazing resource--a comprehensive bibliography of books on Palestine from 1950 to 2024. Thank you @saharazizlaw and team for this incredible contribution!

A week or so ago, I decided to try and figure out how many colleges and universities changed their protest policies over the summer.

The answer: 50+ campuses across the country.

One should take into account that future vaxs & medications may actually prevent COVID & long-COVID.
Personal calculus of risks & payoffs should take into account this long game—ie protect yourself during this present dangerous period to arrive intact at the future.

"Compared to no admission screening testing and staff surgical masks, all scenarios were cost saving with health gains. Staff N95s + RAT admission screening of patients was the cheapest, saving A$78.4M."

I will keep repeating that: Olfactory and cognitive systems overlap in the brain.
The virus goes directly into specific brain regions --> brain scan shows volume abnormalities in the same regions ---> patients show cognitive decline and other behavioral alterations

You do not want to get COVID. You do not want your parents to get COVID. You do not want your kids to get COVID. Nobody wants to get COVID.🤷‍♂️

Independent labs in the U.S. and Canada are now estimating *identical* levels of national COVID transmission.

1 in 73 Americans and Canadians are presently infectious with COVID.

In a room of 50, there's a 50-50 chance someone has infectious COVID.

[Rick Bright @RickABright]

But how is that possible when face masks, respirators, and other PPE are now banned & criminalized in some cities and states?
