RNAseq counting tools are not perfect. I simulated 240 GTEx samples to test multiple tools. Below I show the difference between actual and estimated counts for each simulated sample.

But, what is causing this? And will it affect differential expression? (1/7) #Bioinformatics

Tend to agree. There could be two explanations for saturation that are not mutually exclusive. (1) Some sort of herd immunity at 20% infected. (2) A large fraction of the most vulnerable who comprise say 1000/million need to die. Key will be to see death rate of new outbreaks?

Instead of fireworks extravaganzas this July 4, I think a lot of people would feel the American idea were more meaningfully celebrated if cities put that money into social programs that lasted longer than a few minutes and left people truly better off. While panicking zero dogs.

@thehighsign @NYCMayor This is absolutely a hill I will die on. It's so stupid and I get so mad just thinking about it.

@josheidelson Season 1 takes a few episodes and it gets really good. Season 2, OTOH, is some of the best TV I’ve seen. Possible I just oversold this.
