My #COVID19 site will not be updated until tomorrow, but I wanted to walk through some plots from St. Louis's hospitalization data release today. These are the most detailed, up-to-date in-patient data we get in MO. We're getting new patients at the fastest rate of the pandemic.

Brown School staff and faculty have put together social justice and advocacy resources that offer insights about how to engage in this work during a pandemic. Although not exhaustive, we hope it helps during this time of crisis: bit.ly/2Xu0Aey. #BrownSchoolUnited

Let’s be kind to ourselves. This week has been a whirlwind. Trust the cycles of your productivity and creativity. We will feel productive again. But probably not by tomorrow. huffpost.com/entry/coronavi…

i. just. can't. i can't homeschool a 4, 8 and 10yo, teach 2 college classes online, remotely run my lab, concentrate on manuscripts and grant proposals, and innovate. while i'm also just worried all the time about my 76-yo mom who lives alone on the other side of the country.

Absolutely! Of every 1,000 infecteds who show symptoms, 14 will die. Highly age dependent where the risk of getting infected is 3x and then risk of dying is another 3x in 70+year-olds compared to those in their 30s. This is NOT seasonal flu nor even 2009 pandemic flu!

At the end of all this, let’s try to remember that the geniuses who told us not to worry about coronavirus are the same geniuses telling us not to worry about #climatechange

South Korea continues to show signs that its epidemic is abating, today reporting 74 new cases. Their massive testing effort aimed at identifying and isolating infected patients was no doubt a key part of their success in combatting virus, as were their early mitigation steps.

Another myth to bust: Wuhan stopped short of 20% of the population being infected -- how can you say it will be 20-60% who will get it? FACT: yes Wuhan is short of that. The epidemic is not over. China is restricting travel from outside (irony!) but COVID certainly still there...
