This is an article that requires your careful reading and then reflection or as Aldus Huxley said "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad". Research with exotic viruses risks a deadly outbreak, scientists warn washingtonpost.com/investigations…

One cause of the 'death of expertise' is the failure of higher education to train students to think critically. It's not easy. NYU chose to illustrate this trend by firing a professor whose course was difficult. Shameful. nytimes.com/2022/10/03/us/…
Michael Schmidt retweeted
In today's NYTimes article on #poliovirus in NY, an expert is quoted as saying vaccinated people are protected against the virus. This is WRONG. They are not protected against infection. They are protected from getting paralysis. Vaccinated people may still get infected.

We now have expert guidance from the Environmental Protection Agency, with two pages of recommendations that codify the best practices on ventilation, air filtration and air disinfection from academic experts and federal agencies of the last two years. epa.gov/system/files/d…

Can I point out how critical it is to get the answer to the impact of vaccination on transmission. We are just amount to miss this critical window. Anyone listening? wsj.com/articles/covid…
My colleague from TWiM and the host of TWiV has recently released this treatment consensus for COVID-19 that Dan Griffin and 30 other health professionals released. Thank you for such a tremendous service!

This pediatrician's license to practice should be revoked for publishing this rubbish nytimes.com/2020/08/12/opi… ignores the age-old understanding that children DRIVE PANDEMICS #COVID19

Well this was an honour!
This is a consequence of cost of sequencing dropping from $100M to $500 per human genome... is this signaling the end of need for us to write in our food diaries? Discuss over dinner tonight.
