BREAKING NEWS:
The 2022 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Svante Pääbo “for his discoveries concerning the genomes of extinct hominins and human evolution.”

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

More than 20 years after the 1st human genome was sequenced, there's relatively little to show for it in clinical practice.

From @CatClifford’s article: “The Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant provides 8.6 percent of the state’s [CA] total electricity and 17 percent of the state’s zero-carbon electricity.”

[Pippa Stevens @PippaStevens13]

"In a late night, last-minute vote, California lawmakers approved a measure to give the state the option to keep its last remaining nuclear power plant operating for another five years" via @CatClifford

As John Bell pointed out, when the #Queen of England dies, the speed of light limit will be broken.

Atmospheric wave response to Tonga eruption, from 4 UTC to 10:50 UTC. Slightly smoothed 10-minute change in GOES-17 band 13 (IR). Looks like some modest filtering would pull out a really clear signal.

Omicron overview by @DrTomFrieden based on most recent info and data. Too early to determine the severity, but 2-3 day doubling time. >2 times as transmissible within a household. mRNA booster more effective than double jab or prior (Delta) infection… more details in his tread:

[Dr. Tom Frieden @DrTomFrieden]

What are the facts on Omicron? The picture is getting clearer: Omicron spreads faster and is better able to escape immunity than other variants. Severity is still unknown, although it's likely vaccination reduces severe disease. The virus has adapted; we must as well. 1/thread

One way to gauge the ro­bust­ness of your of­fice ven­ti­la­tion is with a CO mon­i­tor that mea­sures the car­bon diox­ide ex­pelled when peo­ple ex­hale. [ … ] mea­sur­ing CO is a good proxy for in­door ven­ti­la­tion, sci­en­tists say. https://t.co/aYKSI0tb9M

Engineers at MIT and Harvard University have designed a small tabletop device that can detect SARS-CoV-2 from a saliva sample in about an hour. In a new study, they showed that the diagnostic is just as accurate as the PCR tests now used.

Now we're cooking: the EU tracking folks have narrowed their estimate of the CZ-5B entry window to 6 hours, from May 8 2301 UTC to May 9 0521 UTC. The Aerospace Corp and US Space Force estimates are still much wider.
