Though she embodies strength, @alisonturkos should not have to be this strong and she should not have to fight this hard. @lyft has utterly failed to hold itself accountable for her rape. Survivors deserve better.
It's gone unnoticed by many. So I felt like I should properly document what just happened on Weibo today.
Netizens in China, for just a few hours, got to unleash their wrath on the Chinese government for how they handled the Covid crisis in Shanghai and other social issues.
@benryanwriter@TracyBethHoeg I hope I don't have to break the news to anyone here that some people test positive for nucleocapsid (N) but not spike (S) antibodies. The research also relied on antibody tests taken (blood) by patients themselves and sent back to the researchers via mail lol |
@benryanwriter@TracyBethHoeg antibodies may go down significantly after infection (have you heard about the vaccine booster program!?) or that many people don't make antibodies at all with regard to #LongCovid too | they also use a flawed serology test which looks at S1 spike antibodies only |
@benryanwriter@TracyBethHoeg The study is completely unaware (or refuse intentionally to address = scientific misconduct) the vast scientific evidence about antibodies dynamics in SARS-CoV-2 infection and limitations in serology assays use in #LongCovid and covid research | everyone basically knows
@benryanwriter@TracyBethHoeg The study is hugely flawed. It basically have no value scientifically. It is led and co authored by many psychiatrists, while #LongCovid is proven to be a disease with prolonged immunological, cardiovascular, multi-organ, and coagulation dysfunction among other things |

In virology, meaningful reduction in virus loads are discussed in terms of 'log-reduction' - one-log (10-fold) is a minimal standard for an effective antiviral. Inhibiting 50% of virus replication is meaningless. What is the IC90 (10-fold reduction) of IVM against #SARSCoV2? 3/7
Interest in #Ivermectin (IVM) started when an Australian group showed that in tissue culture, IVM inhibits #SARSCoV2 replication with a 50% inhibitory conc. (IC50) of ~ 2 uM. This is 35X HIGHER than the std dose max plasma conc (Cmax) found in humans. https://t.co/XftvYxMwJf 2/7
#Ivermectin does NOT work for #COVID19. So much effort pursuing magical thinking that is not grounded in science. No rigorously controlled trials will ever show its efficacy for treating COVID19. I'll tell you why. 1/7 https://t.co/6rcDmgWmxF
Its time for vaccine mandate for air travel
Lack of one is becoming an issue
So here's my story from last night that confirmed why we need it
Basically, we can't expect mitigation measures to be enforced well enough to prevent transmission on airplanes forever
Short thread
This evening, Facebook suspended my Facebook account and the accounts of several people associated with Cybersecurity for Democracy, our team at NYU. This has the effect of cutting off our access to Facebook's Ad Library data, as well as Crowdtangle. 1/4
Those trying to break into tech:
Please realize that the vast majority of people who like and comment favorably on your bridge-burning shitposts are going to work tomorrow and collecting paychecks. Do not get caught up in clout chasing. Stay focused on your goal.
Respectfully.
I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.
As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵
