Yesterday, Rubio terminated 5800 USAID contracts – more than 90% of its foreign aid programs – in defiance of the courts. Here’s a list of just some of the lifesaving awards that were terminated. Nearly all were Congressional mandated. They've saved millions of lives. 🧵

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives. The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing. Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

FYI: Can PCR have a false Negative? The answer is YES Q: But why don’t we hear about them? A: Bc PCR is always given the status of “ground truth” - so it can “do no wrong” Ex: If rapid test is correctly Pos but PCR Neg, Rapid is automatically assumed to be False Pos 1/

I'm watching today's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices meeting. This is a slide that's previously been presented at ACIP, but I think it's very useful for understanding the issue of myocarditis. This is when it occurs without vaccines.

I'm #COVID19 Positive. Was bound to happen at some point I feel terrible today: Fever, aches, chills (Immune mediated symptoms). Cough (maybe immune, maybe virus) So, here we go. I'll update this thread daily. See photo for rapid test results + infection/test result description

Whenever I see Dr @PeterHotez on TV or on my timeline, I stop whatever I'm doing and pay attention. He's a source of accurate, level-headed medical advice in a world sorely lacking in them. 🙏

Media: @PeterHotez to @Acosta: "Pretty much any time we've seen a new variant, it's spread around the world. And we've not seen any evidence that it produces more severe disease. It's unlikely to be totally resistant" to existing vaccines. "We'll know within the next two weeks."

When I see folks wearing a mask indoors when they don’t have to, I think cool - they’re choosing public safety if unvaccinated or taking a cautious route if fully vaccinated bc their own personal risk tolerance. Either way - not something to shame them for.

33 yrs ago, one of my co-chief residents @UCSF was Steve Hahn, who went on to a storied career as a cancer specialist. In Dec 2019, he became the 24th director of @US_FDA. The rest, as they say, is history. On Monday, @inthebubblepod, I chat w/ Steve; his 1st post-FDA interview.

It PAINS & infuriates me that we continue a path of INACTION beyond a vaccine Deaths are increasing. Yet our leaders CHOOSE to do nothing The nation should be in an uproar! We could ALL know our infection status daily & stop #COVID19 Instead our leaders choose dying Pathetic.

If only the rapid home tests were as prevalent as @michaelmina_lab's pleas for them ;-) Hopefully soon. Thanks for all your leadership to push this! wsj.com/articles/the-y… time.com/5912705/covid-… msnbc.com/stephanie-ruhl… nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

How Iceland's science heft countered #COVID19. Major contributions in recognition of asymptomatics, mass screening, genomics, duration of immune response. Unlike New Zealand, no closure of borders. Pandemic fatigue. nature.com/articles/d4158…
