Vaulable statement from OSR "where models are referred to publicly, particularly to inform significant policy decisions, the model outputs, methodologies and key assumptions should be published at the same time" (COI: I am a non-exec on the UKSA board)

In the room yesterday at No 10 was Johnson, Whitty, Valance, and an enormous unmentioned elephant with ‘Centralised Test and Trace’ written on its belly. 6 weeks ago Sage said it was probably having ‘marginal impact’ https://t.co/DQ061F8ROI and it’s been downhill since then

“the most consistent predictor of decreased susceptibility to misinformation about Covid-19 was numerical literacy” - great study (COI, by my colleagues) https://t.co/umRBTeT0K4 Data literacy is vital

I would fail a masters student for this.

We all know Florence Nightingale as the founder of modern nursing, but did you know she was also a trailblazer in the field of statistics?

[David Spiegelhalter @d_spiegel]

Excellent article on Covid stats by RSS Ambassador Robert Cuffe and Christine Jeavans https://t.co/T7iglsGjUs Congrats to BBC

[David Spiegelhalter @d_spiegel]

For Nerds. Politicians put up curves showing cumulative counts of covid-19 cases and deaths. Journalists want to know if we are flattening off. They are asking about a third derivative.

[Alexandra Freeman @alex_freeman]

Hot off the press, @d_spiegel talks coronavirus numbers: what do they all really mean?
