So, I've been fielding queries from reporters asking me to confirm that former Theranos lab director Adam Rosendorff, who is currently testifying at Elizabeth Holmes's trial, was my source. I can now confirm it. Alan Beam = Adam Rosendorff.

This cycle isn't ideal. A pharma company issues a press release claiming a vaccine/booster is safe and effective in [age group]. That makes headlines. Media tell public that approval will happen in [# of weeks]. It's expected and accepted as truth before FDA even sees the data.

I & others quoted:97-98% vax not needed to get back to 'normal'.

8. But any way you slice it, there's been a lot of testing for #flu during the pandemic & not much flu found. It appears to be inching (millimetering?) upwards, but it is still well below what it would normally be at this time of year. -30- https://t.co/kYufa4QDLC
@HelenBranswell -- Wed Sep 29 03:32:30 +0000 2021
7. Another caveat: Pre-Covid, most #flu tests were likely ordered when someone had #flu-like symptoms. In the pandemic, I would imagine a lot of these are tests that look for Covid or flu or other respiratory pathogens. I don't know what that does to the comparability of data.
@HelenBranswell -- Wed Sep 29 03:32:30 +0000 2021
6. We're still not back to April 2020 #flu levels, but the percentage of positive tests is slowly rising. A caveat I don't know how to adjust for: The denominator varies per 2-wk period. Mostly >100K, sometimes >200K tests, a few times <100K. https://t.co/yuGqG3YOp5
@HelenBranswell -- Wed Sep 29 03:32:29 +0000 2021
5. I wanted to see how 0.68% test positivity compared to the rest of the pandemic. The main graph is Aug 2019 (to the left is the 2019-2020 flu season; very active) through Sept 2021. Flu vanished in April 2020. The inset is then on. We're still not back to April 2020 flu levels. https://t.co/GLxXzXkUUR
@HelenBranswell -- Wed Sep 29 03:32:28 +0000 2021
4. Aside: Another Q about #flu is whether a family of flu B viruses, B/Yamagata, was driven extinct during the pandemic. Two B/Yam viruses were reported in this @WHO report but as @trvrb would say, let's see if sequences get logged into the databases. TBD. https://t.co/t9eiuV9MVu https://t.co/pMhOragFeS

3. How much #flu is out there? Of nearly 276K flu tests run in 88 countries from 8/30-9/12, 1,884 were positive for flu — 0.68%. During the same 2-week period in 2019 (ie before Covid) 7.4% of tests globally were positive for influenza. In 2020, it was 0.04%, ie almost none. https://t.co/C4JKtkKHHK

@Just_Curius 1. Dunno. A lot will depend on whether we're going to need to be boosted occasionally or regularly. If the latter, there may be room for next-gen vaccines that combine Covid & flu. If someone comes up with a good nasal vaccine, that should find a market. Otherwise ... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There's more evidence to suggest that "breakthrough" SARS-CoV-2 infections among vaccinated people are not as "rare" as claimed- & that's with the patchy data largely based on symptomatic testing. Even the CDC has switched from saying "rare" to "a small percentage of cases."
@Arrianna_Planey -- Tue Sep 28 23:38:30 +0000 2021
I continue to mask up, socially distance, avoid indoor spaces, and avoid air travel, because I am interdependent with people who are susceptible. That,& it's supremely reasonable for me to do what I can do to avoid infection, even as a vaccinated person.

This is not correct, individuals who become infected with COVID19 and recover exhibit highly variable levels of protective immunity vs reinfection. Some have protection, others very little or none.

@michaelzlin -- Tue Sep 28 21:19:48 +0000 2021
Masks have now helped limit the Delta surge (the one MG predicted won't happen). But most places are not at herd immunity as we enter colder weather, and VE is waning in those who can't get boosted (due to opposition from people like MG). So it would be dumb to unmask now.

Yes. This is an important point. If your child remains seronegative (no vaccination, successfully avoids infection)... their age-stratified risks for severe disease just keep increasing. Cause they will catch it eventually. https://t.co/TrF3DC9VdS

There is still a major need for medications (pills, rather than IV) to *prevent* #COVID19 infection. Pfizer is evaluating a medication (PF-07321332) & Merck is looking into molnupiravir to prevent COVID-19 in those who are exposed but not yet infected. https://t.co/ehNDi2ur6f https://t.co/lPeM4hdPdH

once you zoom out of the US, where issue is partisanship in both vaccines and trust in science,my (unpopular?) opinion is that you can't really draw these sort of inferences due to range restriction giving low correlatiosn (everyone trusts scientists a lot no matter what they do)

Predicting the dynamics of that longer-term state is a whole new ballgame, and depends on some variables we have little data on (eg. not just waning and boosters, but the severity level of multiple re-infection cycles). So I won’t attempt to do that– at least, not yet. /end

Here's the fundamental obstacle to expanded public dental coverage: It would cost more for the state to take this on. And it would reduce dentists' incomes because the state would have greater pricing power over reimbursement. The only people who would benefit are...the patients.

An important use of a rapid test in addition to public health tools. For Public Health, rapid "Test-to-Stay" is an important use. For medical purposes, Rapid "Test-to-Treat" can help identify COVID early and get immediate treatment or reduce barriers to heading to hospital. https://t.co/SCaGY1olwy
@michaelmina_lab -- Tue Sep 28 22:55:12 +0000 2021
Good example of how even a very good test loses most of its effectiveness to stop spread if not fast If @KPN1 was infectious when the swab was collected on Sun morning, by time her result is returned, the “effective sensitivity” to identify and stop spread is likely <20%. https://t.co/y5EdABIrfF

We need to think about preparedness differently, in terms of not just vaccines & tech solutions, but also social measures like paid sick leave, universal healthcare, and more. Social equity is not a side-quest of preparedness but its foundation. 6/ https://t.co/6D2ENWBrRx

@DrTomori @prof_goldberg Having to do the reading in real-time has been… an experience. But also very fulfilling. These last 2 years really have been like taking a Masters of Public Health course (with an extremely punishing essay requirement) from the University of Oh No Everything Is On Fire.

Those lessons are codified in this new piece. One of the people I interviewed described this as “the most important piece about the pandemic that had not yet been written.” I hope I did it justice. I hope we can break the cycle. Fin/ https://t.co/6D2ENWBrRx

You can sort of see this piece as the third in a trilogy. I wrote the first in 2018, when I asked if the US was ready for the next pandemic, and tried to work out what "preparedness" even means. 8/ https://t.co/warEfLblRK
@edyong209 -- Wed Sep 29 12:32:27 +0000 2021
Some of that is happening. Biden’s American Rescue Plan is an incredibly important pandemic-preparedness bill that doesn't look like one. But more needs to happen, and neglect is already setting in. The pull of normal is strong but normal led to this. 7/ https://t.co/6D2ENWBrRx
@edyong209 -- Wed Sep 29 12:32:26 +0000 2021
I look at *why* the panic-neglect cycle exists, including 150 years that led to America’s crumbling public health system & its obsession with biomedical panaceas. That history is vital. It’s why we think about this pandemic the way we do. 5/ https://t.co/6D2ENWBrRx

I graduated high school in 1990, and I know I’m old. But, when I was in high school, 6% of 15-19 year old women got pregnant. Now, it is 1.5%. Interesting, this isn’t talked about more amidst all the talk of family decline. Seems like a unequivocally positive development.
