    1. Tigran Avoundjian. (2022, January 3). Increases in hospitalizations routinely lag behind cases by a week (sometimes more). Deaths have an even longer lag. On 12/30, we had seen a 56% increase in 7-day hospitalization counts, and today we are seeing an 81% increase week-to-week. We have already passed the Sept peak.

    1. Ryan Imgrund. (2022, January 2). If schools are not a source of transmission for COVID-19, why were school board per capita rates of infection 1.77x HIGHER than their surrounding community?

    1. Kayla Simpson. (2022, January 3). The COVID data coming out of NYC jails is...beyond staggering. Today’s report shows a 7-day avg positivity rate of 37%, w/502 ACTIVE INFECTIONS. With a ~5K census, that means that nearly one in ten people in DOC has an ACTIVE infection. Crisis on crisis.

If you sneeze/cough do you a) take mask off, use a handkerchief, wash hands b) keep mask on -if so where does the snot go?

    1. Trisha Greenhalgh. (2021, December 27). This is nothing short of scandalous.

    1. Deepti Gurdasani. (2021, December 23).

    1. Prof. Shane Crotty. (2021, November 2). Wow. COVID vaccine misinformation continues to be soooo horrible. This is incredible widespread and ABSOLUTELY made up.

    1. A Marm Kilpatrick. (2021, November 24). How do we get broad immunity to SARS-CoV-2 that will protect against future variants? 2 studies (are there more?) suggest that vaccination followed by infection gives broader protection than infection followed by vaccination. @florian_krammer @profshanecrotty @GuptaR_lab https://t.co/rqdf6rE9ej [Tweet]. @DiseaseEcology. https://twitter.com/DiseaseEcology/status/1463391782742335491

    1. ReconfigBehSci on Twitter: “but it is not vaccinated people that are disproportionately filling up ICUs. For any government whose policy is guided by ICU capacity, limiting the transmission possibilities for the unvaccinated is now the point. It is frustrating to see someone continue to ignore this” / Twitter. (n.d.). Retrieved December 23, 2021, from https://twitter.com/SciBeh/status/1471088416246878211

    1. ReconfigBehSci. (2021, December 18). One thing I keep coming back to in my thoughts is the formerly respected scientists who completely lost their way in this pandemic. Is there something we could be teaching young researchers that would help minimise this in future? Are there norms of science we could strengthen?

    1. Colin Davis. (2021, December 20). Update for 20th Dec. The trend line still reflects 1.8 day doubling (it’s 1.7 days if we look at just the last week).

    1. Инфотех, биотех, финтех – вот основные архитекторы инфотрендов, политической повестки и социо-экономической политики современного глубоко перверсивного и искаженного, «сломанного» мира. Они же основные модераторы и лоббисты COVID локдаунов и всей связанной с этим политикой (бесконечное QE, бюджетные стимулы). За 10 лет выручка указанных секторов удвоилась, за 5 лет выросла более, чем в 1.5 раза. Основной импульс роста произошел с середины 2020....По другую сторону баррикад, традиционная экономика, которая ни за 10 лет, ни за 5 лет практически не увеличила выручку в номинальном выражении. https://spydell.livejournal.com/701089.html
    1. ReconfigBehSci. (2021, December 7). Given an estimate whereby the average person knows ca. 600 people, assuming 50% vaxxed, the average person would know 8 people who died of the vaccine.

    1. Adam Bienkov. (2021, December 14). Conservative MP Desmond Swayne says the “carnage” on UK roads is “certainly killing more people than Covid at the moment”.

    1. Dr. Malhotra added that his colleague told him the institution decided it would be better not to publish the results, fearing it would lose its research funding. Referring to UK government health data showing there has been a substantial increase in the number of cardiology-related deaths recently, Malhotra noted, “somebody from a very prestigious British institution – a cardiology department researcher [and] a whistleblower – contacted me to say that researchers in [his] department had found something similar within the coronary arteries linked to the vaccine.” He continued, “They had a meeting and these researchers at the moment have decided they’re not going to publish their findings because they are concerned about losing research money from the drug industry.” Malhotra also referred to a recent paper by renowned cardiologist Steven Gundry that was published. The research found that COVID vaccines “dramatically increase inflammation on the endothelium and T cell infiltration of cardiac muscle.” “Knowing this information is very concerning, [in addition to] Steven Gundry’s paper, and also anecdotal evidence…being told by colleagues that younger and younger people coming in with heart attacks,” Malhotra explained. The doctor added “We know since July there’s been almost 10,000 excess non-Covid deaths and most of those, or a significant portion of those have been driven by circulatury disease – or in other words heart attack and stroke.”
