@MrOH1O SEC is 14-5 in CFP … B10 is 3-5 … there should be a bias if you’re looking to gather teams more likely to win … The problem is Bama can’t jump to 3rd and CFP doesn’t want SEC exclusive Semifinal, thus Ohio State will be 4, but head to head, Bama beats OSU

I find the {New Hospitalized Per Day} most telling and encouraging {not a function of broader testing; leading indicator vs. lagging Mortality}. Thanks @tjmule !

2/2] The reason why the data reported from South Korea is so encouraging is that the country is one of the most successful in terms of testing.

This suggests that the decline is not just a failure to detect new cases.

Here is our latest data on testing: https://t.co/ZMjohHRvA7

And finally, as a wise old aidworker once told me, work in a "slow-hurry". Deliberate, measured, not in a frenzy. Disasters are marathons not sprints. Have to be able to sustain efforts for a prolonged time. Keep calm. Watch out for the team. Keep morale up. Slow-hurry.

We need to increase the operational capacity of the US fed govt COVID response by orders of magnitude now. We need a new model - what we have isn't powerful enough. And this is with the COVID epidemic only at its earliest phases here. 1/x

We’ve received FDA emergency use authorization and are immediately shipping 150,000 RealTime SARS-CoV-2 EUA tests for COVID-19. We’ll ramp up to a million tests per week by the end of the month: https://t.co/MfabLWIFns 1/2

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

We can start with getting every #healthcare worker tested now. And again if negative. And again.
And demand the right protective gear for all now.
There is simply no excuse.

We can now read the Imperial College report on COVID-19 that led to the extreme measures we've seen in the US this week. Read it; it's terrifying. I'll offer a summary in this thread; please correct me if I've gotten it wrong.

Negative outlook by longtime director of @NIH: “If you look at the rates of new cases that are being diagnosed, we’re on an exponential curve. That curve, some would say, places us only about eight days behind Italy....” #COVID19 https://t.co/84yAe5Nwcs

The report by the ‘Imperial College COVID-19 Response Team’ has been released on March 16th (https://t.co/vKawJFNtxo). Now that things have calmed down a bit, I felt I should produce a thread summarising my personal take on it. (1/15)
