@richardblogger @jappleby123 Washing up makes it sound like you prefer drawing lines of best fit yourself

@VictimOfMaths Has Sheffield been accepting patients from elsewhere? I remember seeing reports in HSJ about patients being transferred ‘as far north as Yorkshire’ during wave 3

@buckinghamh @SarahScobie2 @JessieSMorris @andyheeps There’s some information in this paper that a former colleague wrote https://t.co/mqLUBywcOF

To demonstrate how impressive what was announced today is: In October the CGD used expert interviews and public info to estimate the expected probability of a vaccine being approved by a stringent regulator in 2020.

They said the probability was 2%.

@CamilleOung @Liscummins @apha_analysts @NHSrCommunity I always recommend R4DS to beginners, I think it’s a great way to get started with R. Feel free to reach out if I can help with specific questions 😊

Is there nothing cheese can’t do?

@ali_pals No Internet on the second screen though 😱

@UnhealthyEcon It is impressive parenting to impart wisdom about time preference so early

@jappleby123 @LucinaRolewicz @NuffieldTrust Only two sadly!

I might be at the farm on leave, but there’s always more to learn about the history of @NuffieldTrust

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@NinaHemmings92 @NuffieldTrust The only thing more impressive than the model tractor display is all of the real classic tractors he has squirrelled away around the farm

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@jappleby123 @NuffieldTrust I’d screw it on myself!

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@LucinaRolewicz @NuffieldTrust Would you like me to read to you from volume 1 or from volume 2?

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@m_pat1 @NuffieldTrust I can’t believe that we’re not all issued with one on joining 😀

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@NuffieldTrust My dad does have an actual Nuffield tractor too, from the 50s, but I’ll save a photo of that for when (if) it is restored

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

@LucinaRolewicz Wow, where did you dig that up from?

[Lauren Elias @AngharadLauren]

New blog from @SarahScobie2 and I - looking at how hospital discharge data from March this year compares to the previous year and what this tells us about how the NHS went about freeing up capacity at the beginning of the pandemic.

[Jonathan Spencer @jspncr_]

New blog with @CamilleOung: What can the data we have tell us about general practice in the last few months?

[Nuffield Trust @NuffieldTrust]

NEW: There have been huge changes to general practice in the last few months. Analysing new data, @jspncr_ and @CamilleOung look at what has changed during lockdown and what it might mean for the future. https://t.co/kjRMma2at6
