We built @COVIDCanIDoIt to help people avoid risky activities during the COVID-19 pandemic because we realized that a lot of folks are struggling with social distancing. Check it out: https://t.co/lj4c7blKzD

This thread by is going around
The numbers are not correct

We do not care about sensitivity against PCR -> We care about Sens against culturable/infectious virus

For that, rapid antigen tests are >90%

And the % infectious at day 5 used is inaccurate.

Its a nonsensical 🧵

I’ve tried very hard to give the CDC the benefit of the doubt. But I’m increasingly frustrated that they do not comprehend how hard it is for organizations who are really trying to do the right thing in the real world to keep up with their guidance.

And I’m a huge fan. Really.

Today, I spent a big part of my day talking to genomic and biotech companies as soon we will run out of reagents as airplanes are not flying to South Africa! It will be 'evil' if we can not answer the questions that the world needs about #Omicron due to the travel ban!

[Dr. Alister Martin @NYCHealthCommr]

Update on the omicron variant: There are currently NO confirmed cases of the omicron variant in NYC. Delta remains the dominant strain – about 98% of sequenced specimens. We do anticipate detecting omicron in the coming days, based on what we know about its global spread.🧵

Even though the Merck vaccine turned out to be a dud, there is a positive takeaway here. Companies aren’t pushing vaccines that don’t work well! That’s great news for those who are vaccine hesitant. The vaccine development process works and is transparent! https://t.co/P18Jt6f8eJ

Do you think Donald Trump would be less bitchy if we gave him a little participation medal?

@MCBazacoPhD Herta is 10/10 but I have a feeling sponsors are going to drive (bu-dum-tss) the second seat choice. Haas is so cash strapped relative to the big boys even w/ cost caps.

What? I couldn't hear you over the screams of the people Columbus brutalized, enslaved, and from whom he stole. https://t.co/8KcUvtRPug

“The Radical Left is trying hard to undermine the Christopher Columbus legacy. A great Italian opened new chapter in history of humanity by discovering the Americas”. @OANN Not on my watch!

@dw_field @UWMadisonPolice @matthewmitnick_ @UWBIPOCCo @TAA_Madison @BeckyBlank It seems wildly inappropriate and unprofessional to be trolling the personal accounts of students. Don’t mind me, just another alum watching closely.

Say it again for the folks in the back

[Health Nerd @GidMK]

Two facts:

1. No expert likes lockdowns
2. If the alternative is a truly unacceptable death toll, a lockdown could be the least worst option
