@MicrobiomDigest You’re having a real impact, retractions or no retractions. You’re improving peer-review standards and hopefully editorial standards

[Cristina Domnisoru @cdomni]

Reducing pressure to publish "well" by decoupling basic lab funding from impact factor might nudge us to choose honesty

[Elisabeth Bik @MicrobiomDigest]

@ShachinPatra Yes, most of the papers we find problems in will be posted / flagged on @PubPeer. If you install the PP browser plug-in you can see all the papers we have flagged in the past.

[Shachin Patra @ShachinPatra]

@MicrobiomDigest Is it possible to make the information about the journals, the papers, and what's wrong with them available to the public? In that case, we can spread the word and make other people aware, which will certainly create more pressure on the journals to take appropriate steps.

Scientists out there who are afraid to talk to friends/family about Covid because you’re not a virologist, epidemiologist, etc: remember that you have the privilege of having been taught how to find and analyze peer-reviewed research. You can provide better info than Facebook.

Congress, if you’re listening . . . may I please make a suggestion? Subpoena Postermaster General Louis DeJoy - a multimillion $ Republican donor - & grill him on how he’s intentionally slowing mail delivery. If he fails to appear, please use your lawful inherent contempt powers.

[Mary L Trump @MaryLTrump]

Has any reasonable American ever

--doubted the validity of mail-in ballots?
--questioned the value of the postal service?
--questioned the legitimacy of an election before a single vote is cast?

Why are these being questioned now?

I just got kicked out of a flat earth Facebook group because I asked if the 6 foot social distancing guideline had pushed anyone over the edge yet.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Donald Trump has not failed on his own.

Mitch McConnell and Republicans have been right by his side since he was sworn in—enabling his corruption, emboldening his ego, and eroding our democracy.

We have to hold them all accountable in November.

Today marks 3 months since I came down with #COVID19 symptoms. I’m still nowhere near better. I’m 32, was perfectly healthy before and I was trying really hard not to expose myself to the virus #LongCovid 1/10

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Enhanced unemployment benefits expired for millions overnight.

We don’t have an effective nationwide testing program or a plan to control the virus.

Our health care workers still don’t have enough PPE.

Enough with the weekend golf trips, Mr. President. Do your job.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

We know what's broken in this country and we know how to fix it. But widely popular policies are stuck—and Republican obstruction in the Senate is only getting worse.

We won't make progress unless we face this head on: It’s past time to get rid of the filibuster.

Day 114 of #LongCovid
Hubby & I lying in bed berating ourselves for doing too much with the kids yesterday & pondering the future.

Both <40 yrs old. Both off work for >3 months. We will never factor into morbidity stats due to #COVID19 as we tested negative

A group in Italy found that 87% of a patient cohort hospitalized for acute COVID19 was still struggling 2 months later. Data from the COVID Symptom Study (millions of people in the US, UK, Sweden) suggest 10% to 15% of people—including some “mild” cases—don’t quickly recover. 5/
