Many people think that a scientific consensus is a large group of scientists who all agree that something is true.

In reality, it’s a large body of scientific studies that all agree with and support each other. The agreement is a by-product of the consistent evidence.

Sequencing directly from Rapid Antigen Test strips!

A major concern of Rapid Antigen Tests has been the loss of public health data such as virus sequencing

However, Rapid Tests do not have to imply a loss in Public Health Data - reporting and sequencing can still move…

Panic is not the problem.

People are not panicking. People aren’t even close to being vaguely alert.

People are getting sick and dying from preventable diseases though, because we are so worried about the non-existent panic that we aren’t even doing basic health promotion.

Many rapid COVID-19 + Flu A/B antigen tests detect H5N1. There are now a few FDA authorized

CorDx is the most recent home/self multiplex (plus Sekisui and Osang) and a number of CLIA-waived devices too

These are in US now if needed and can support surveillance testing

Average cash price of a residential solar system in the US, according to Wood Mackenzie: $3.25 per watt.

Price in Australia: $0.62 per watt.

Absolutely shameful. There should be a coordinated national effort to solve this.

Finals are so stressful! Everyone needs approvals and signatures under tight deadlines! That’s why I always take vacation during finals, it reduces my stress so much!

I haven’t heard this one in a while. Like every hospital doesn’t have a bio lab! Heck, I have some microscopes, PPE, stains, and agar culture plates. I have a bio lab!

Ask me about nuclear receptors! Zinc fingers! Steroid synthesis & metabolism! The HPA axis!

Don't ask me to explain Kevin Bass, though. I wonder just which A he was wondering the MOA of?

The answer to any Q about steroids begins with 'It's complicated'.

Great news! We need to add a few more viruses to our repertoire of home tests, and we need to normalize using them to avoid spread, including not sending sick people out into the world for work or school.

When white settlers took over this region, besides killing & displacing Native Americans, they also caused massive GHG emissions by plowing prairies & forests.
Estimates show emissions were comparable to the deforestation of the Amazon.
This is a continuation of that extraction.

Another beautiful, 100% day in California.

Today is the 26th out of the past 33 days that supply exceeded demand on the grid for 0.25-6 h. Today, it was for 1.67 h, and the peak was 103.4%.
