- more than 50% of deaths that occurred in the analyzed countries could have been averted
- considerable additional non-pharmaceutical interventions would have been required to offset the lack of vaccines.

"The tweets think us."

In a post citing work from numerous SFI researchers, friend of the Institute @gordonbrander point to information scaling thresholds in society and points to the frontiers of collective intelligence:

Open-rank positions open @CentaiInstitute: If you are interested in working at the interface of #Complexity, #Networks, and #AI, both in foundational and applied research, consider applying to this call. Contact me for more information (& possible topics). https://t.co/V0ZVnHyvI6

[Brennan Klein @jkbren]

About a month left to apply to the Network Science PhD program at @NUnetsi! Next year's class will be the (omg) 10th cohort for this program -- a sign of how much it (and Network Science generally) has grown over these past many years.

"After shocking the mathematics community with a major result in 2013, Yitang Zhang now says he has solved an analogue of the celebrated Riemann hypothesis." (The analogue is called the Landau-Siegel zeros conjecture.) https://t.co/Y0pYliH5ZH

Another math documentary comes out next week! This one is on publuc TV and stars the great ⁦@Dr_TalithiaW⁩. Preview here: Zero to Infinity ⁦@novapbs⁩ https://t.co/sKgdC0IPMT

The origin of chaos theory is usually told as a story about E. Lorenz, who started a revolution in the 1960s. But that omits the contributions of two women who would have been listed as his co-authors today. https://t.co/lnKn6QtQCb @QuantaMagazine @complexitatcat @F_Sicomoro
