I wrote about what @POTUS could have enacted today to help us prevail over the pandemic, but unfortunately won't erictopol.substack.com/p/wha… @substack

This is actually quite reassuring to me for now. It will take time to amass the data to answer more definitively the question about risks of omicron. But when healthcare providers give their impressions of what it's feeling like on the ground, we should listen.
Replying to @DLeonhardt
You’ll hear similar optimism from many South African experts. “It’s early days, but I’m less panicked,” said Richard Friedland, who runs the country’s largest network of private health care providers. “It feels different to me on the ground.” bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Couldn't agree more! 👏@j_g_allen "We think much of the confusion & disagreement among scientists and nonexperts alike comes down to undefined and sometimes conflicting goals in responding to the pandemic. What are we actually trying to achieve in the US?" nytimes.com/2021/08/30/opini…

These are very limited windows to the US Delta wave. Where are the data for the ~90,000 patients currently hospitalized w/r to vaccination status, vaccine, time from vaccination, age, demographics, comorbidites? All of this exists in the patient charts. We can and must do better

After you have taken the Covid vaccine, do you plan to still wear a mask? #covidpoll #masks #covid19 #gme

Another great report from the White House COVID-19 Task Force showing 8 week trends in COVID thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
Best COVID report I have seen, and shockingly it's put out by the US Government, unfortunately, Tennessee and California are not looking good... thismaysting.com/posts/covid…

Updated excess mortality data is in for the week ending October 18 and mortality is down from the previous week and back to more typical levels thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
Some much needed good news, tests are close to 2M a day and positive test rate plateauing at 10% across the US, and thinking about vaccine tracking thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
Expert analysts across the country are willing to help hospitals with data, operations and logistics for FREE!!! thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
I project we will hit 100K COVID hospitalizations by December; while this would be a dismal milestone, it WILL force much needed changes across hospital infrastructure thismaysting.com/posts/covid…

DeBlasio threatening new shutdowns as COVID cases and positive test rates rise in NY, overall still much better than most of the US, but concerning thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
6 States have more than 20% of beds occupied by COVID patients and 9 states under 1% thismaysting.com/posts/covid…
