Apoorva Mandavilli is a terrible science reporter at the NYTimes. Her errors exaggerate covid risk to kids and harm public policy. Check out this correction factory and RT if you agree that NYTimes needs to have standards

Fantastic ⁦@YaleSPH⁩ graduation speech from ⁦@apoorva_nyc⁩, imploring us all to share the full truth and stand firm against the efforts, by too many, to use misinformation to undermine the public’s health.

Low-wage and working-class people never had the opportunity to stay home to stay safe. Affluent professionals were told they were slowing the spread by staying home and being served by the working-class.

A lot of the outrage about President Biden's comment is performative.

[Vinay Prasad MD MPH @VPrasadMDMPH]

In his interview with @ZDoggMD, Paul Offit offers the most thoughtful definition of pandemic/ emergency stage to date: when it interferes with your ability to live, interact and gather, and by that defn. it is over in the USA.

Only on twitter does a tiny minority deny that

[Anthony LaMesa @ajlamesa]

You waste so much time in the United States dealing with broken systems and institutions -- both private and public. Very tiring.

The same people that claimed relegating kids to online education would be no big deal are the same ones now claiming masks have zero negative impacts.

Have they completely forgotten their childhood?

[Prof Francois Balloux @BallouxFrancois]

@dr_musgrave Essentially everyone wants to be healthy, slim and fit. I'm unconvinced the solution lies in creating incentives for people to take better care of themselves. What would likely be more effective is to create an environment where people have the time and financial means to do so.

@apsmunro @adamcifu @VPrasadMDMPH Cambridge reversed course. 👎

[Cambridge University Hospitals NHS @CUH_NHS]

Facemasks are no longer required in our hospitals, with a few exceptions (see the link below).

They will still be available for those who would prefer to wear one.

Let the member of staff caring for you know if you would like them to wear a mask.

Leave it @VPrasadMDMPH to touch the untouchable.
(Reposting without the silly lead and picture).
Yes, I know many will strongly disagree with this piece but at least worth thinking about as we default into masks in clinical setting for years to come.

@adamcifu @mistermo57 @GIMaPreceptor @EricLast3 @dhpomerantz @randymcohn @DrAdamBitterman As with tennis, balls and strikes ought to be called by computers— umps get it wrong far too often. Agree, let them shift. Prefer the epic 5 hr Yanks v Sox games so against the pitch clock. Miss the days of yore where DPs were broken up by taking the 2nd baseman out.

[Jay Bhattacharya @DrJBhattacharya]

The @CDCgov promulgated the 6 ft rule in the basis of no good scientific evidence. Businesses, churches, schools, and lives were destroyed in the basis of institutional panic.
