Covid (@UCSF) Chronicles, Day 838
The die is now cast: BA.5 is destined to be our dominant virus.
In today’s 🧵I discuss the implications on the course of the pandemic, and how to think about responding.
(I use “BA.5” & not “BA.4/5” since BA.5 is poised to outrun BA.4.). (1/25)

Goes without saying at this point…

Test before exiting isolation to know you are no longer infectious

(Do not listen to the @CDCgov on this - Unfortunately it’s been wrong for months.)

5 days does NOT mean you are not infectious

MOST people remain infectious at 5 days.

@hostmicrobe So far! No one escapes the Wordle variant.

[Seth Zost @seth_zost]

Given the large number of studies in the last few weeks, I wanted to do a thread on the impact of the #OmicronVariant on our #SARSCoV2 monoclonal antibody therapeutics and how we can best interpret these data (1/n)

@MLCheng3 ....and sadly it was more than 2 years into my PhD before I learned about nohup for my bash scripts...

[Meagan Rubel @Meagan_Ru]

@MLCheng3 Execute your r commands in batch mode! Huge time saver.
