One of the most important things I was looking for in reporting on #SARSCoV2 evolution was a way of making sense of all the virus variants, putting them in some framework. And one of the most useful things I found for that is this antigenic map. It’s worth explaining a bit:

Thrilled to get going on this work; an idea I had in the back of my head for the past 5 years -- combining large-scale non-exp data with small trials to learn about effect heterogeneity. And a great team, inc. former post-doc Hwanhee Hong and Duke colleagues, and Trang Nguyen.

Did you know we have a research collection about the 2030 goals for neglected #tropicaldiseases? In this collection, a large network of infectious diseases modellers provide insights on the measurability, feasibility, and timeline of these proposed goals: bddy.me/3uFit7s

Part of my work is to summarize the science - to understand how well something works & how confident we should be. But I’m increasingly convinced that we need consensus about what evidence is needed – and how we’ll know if it’s good enough – before research even begins. 1/x

Dr. Tedros notes that we can choose cooperation, competition, or conflict when it comes to getting vaccines to the right people, at the right time, at the right price. Global cooperation is the only option. Urgent action needed now.

Herd immunity is, of course, a real thing. But it was always a mistake to define it as some kind of magic threshold (it isn't) that can be precisely measured (it can't) and which has to reached to achieve a positive outcome (it doesn't).

Case reports can prove what is possible, and sometimes elucidate important new paths of inquiry. Great thread on one of the cases of CVST in proximity to J&J vaccine.
