THIS 👇 #Epidemiology will be a required course in high school, and everyone will get this question right because they would have read the required reading "Fast & Sensitive - How to #rapidtest your way out of a pandemic" by @michaelmina_lab. H/T @ScaryMommy 👏
I want to leave Matthew Perry’s own words here as the way we remember him. There will never be another like him- he lit up so many hearts in so many ways. Godspeed to Paradise!
This drug is accelerating #SARSCoV2 evolution.

The antiviral ensitrelvir (Xocova) appears to be at least as good as Paxlovid, including helping to prevent #LongCovid , without "battery mouth" side effects, and it should get approved for use in the US

@capellisport, after spending over $1000 on uniforms, waited 2+ mo, reaching out to you many times via email and social media for an update, and we got nothing. I think @bbb_us should know how you run you business. And I am not the only one feel this way.
@bbb_us@capellisport thanks @bbb_us, read those and left another one star review. There are many more 1 star reviews about @capellisport https://t.co/FN8jVjaGwr, but is there anything @bbb_us can do to address the issues raised by all the frustrated customers?
Deals and stormy sentiments at biopharma's annual #JPM22 kickoff, plus hot takes from CERSI, neuroscience meetings. Tune into @BioCentury's latest podcast to get the scuttlebutt from San Francisco with @FishburnSimone@BioBonanos@steveusdin1@SelinaMKoch https://t.co/1zGuCNxRIp
A very important and informative thread about why the Omicron XBB.1.5 subvariant is now dominating in the Northeast US and is expected to spread. Please protect yourselves and others by wearing N95 masks. I am truly concerned about the #longCOVID wave that follows this infection.

Here we go again. A new global covid wave.

It likely won't be as bad as prior waves, but there's much that can be done to defend against it that we're not doing.
In California, SARSCoV2 wastewater levels now back to first wave peaks, and approaching BA1 and BA5 peaks.
With now 3 fall-winter waves, we can now get a broad historical overview of how infection fatality rates (IFRs) have changed over time
A prototype of the Firefox extension for OpenCheck's new community-based identity verification system is now available: https://t.co/bSjfnkUrGi. Chrome and other browsers coming soon. See video for how it works:
Just launched: you can now use a Mastodon address to contribute to the Science Twitter Graph Archive -- ORCID optional. We did this because #ScienceTwitter has many constituents, from journalists, policy makers, to the public. https://t.co/9ItmbRSl23
I realize I have a serious problem with people who criticize others without good faith. Some people do it only to feel superior to others and fill a hole in their hearts.
If you don’t want others to do better through constructive feedback, I don’t want to spend time with you.
Science Twitter is valuable, but Twitter is going through an uncertain phase at the moment. Let's archive the Science Twitter follow graph using scientists' ORCIDs just in case. We built a tool for this -- it takes just one minute to contribute! https://t.co/9ItmbRSl23
My platform for experiments in social epistemology is coming soon. While I haven't launched it yet, I just put up a project that helps preserve the Twitter follow graph for Science Twitter by linking Twitter IDs with ORCIDs and (de-facto standard for academics publishing papers).
