@spencerpratt @nytimes Appalling, divisive take by @nytimes . I've interviewed dozens of fire victims from Palisades, Malibu and Altadena. Every single one of them is happy about what you are doing. You are one of few publicly asking the questions that EVERYONE has. Thank you for your work.

A furnished Bel Air home went on Zillow today for $29,500 / month. A few months ago, it was asking $15,900.

I called up the agent. She said she told her client to re-list the home after this week's L.A. fires.

"People are desperate," she said. "You can probably get good money."

@michaelmina_lab @Bob_Wachter When I had Covid, and was symptomatic, I took a rapid test. Negative. Knew I was exposed and didn’t believe it. Then took a pcr. Positive.

I don’t think this is true.
