…which means we need to think very hard before we consider bringing those measures back again in this era of high immunity and low severity of #COVID19. Doing so will kick the can down the road. Great visual explainer from the Lancet: https://t.co/b7ce9dHdk7

What would an RCT on mask harms tell us? That these people’s experiences don’t matter? That they are lying? That they are in the minority and the minority doesn’t count? That when they say they can’t bear the thought of going back to that, we shouldn’t care?

Is it true; people in academia don’t sync their calendars? Like, when you need to arrange a meeting with a colleague it’s a back and forth email conversation until you find an available date/time. Coming from the tech world, I’m in shock. #phdvoice #AcademicTwitter @PhDVoice

Why we fought for open schools in MA. This wasn’t hard to predict, and it surely wasn’t necessary for multiple years on end. Sadly, children will pay the price for these poor policy decisions for decades to come. https://t.co/2KsRLG9Y1O
