@suddenlystartup @todayyearsold They hold things to them with their tube feet controlled by a water vascular system. Same way they move around and stick to surfaces.
New COVID-19 preprint by Helix shows Delta and Gamma displacing Alpha in the US.
Data from our viral surveillance and testing predict Delta will be dominant in a few weeks; early evidence shows growth is faster in counties with lower vaccination rates compared to gamma.
@ASlavitt@my_helix just completed an analysis of our 2 million COVID-19 tests, looked at S gene dropout, which can be a proxy for the UK variant, and provide evidence that the UK variant is indeed probably here in the US
We looked at the prevalence of S gene dropout in 2 million COVID-19 test samples from across the US and saw increasing prevalence over time, particularly in eastern states—suggesting there may be spread of the SARS-CoV-2 UK variant in the United States. https://t.co/TEobvxtCxz
The mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are kind of brilliant at a science level. I’ve had a few people in my real non-Twitter life ask me to explain how it works so I’m going to try my best here in this thread while I’m waiting for a patient to show.
It’s #BatmanDay and we’re ready to party like it’s 1989. Introducing the new LEGO® 1989 Batwing based on the movie and available starting October 21. @LEGO_Group
Helix's next-generation sequencing COVID-19 test received EUA! "The ability to [use NGS] technology to conduct 100,000 tests per day in the same laboratory is a logistical and scientific breakthrough," says Senior Advisor to the NIH director, Rick Bright https://t.co/CTWm5npN6i
@UCF Just got your email. You launched an inquiry to determine if this guy is racist? I read his bio and 3 tweets and figured it out. As an alum I’m disgusted he’s still employed. Know better, do better.
Dear @UCF...
How is Charles Negy still employed at UCF when his views are clearly racist. This bigot is who you want teaching Psychology, of all subjects? He is NOT representative of the "diverse faculty and staff who create a welcoming environment..." As an alum, I am APPALLED.
In honor of #WDCDD, we wanted to share our inclusion statement. We understand that our organization can appear to under-represent the diversity we know to exist in the at-home dad community. We work to change that perception. Ours is a space where all at-home dads are welcome.
