    My person of the year is Katalin Karikó, the Hungarian-born researcher who helped pioneer custom-made mRNA research in the 1990s. She planted the seed that grew the tree that saved the world. Thank you!

    To be inclusive of virus illiteracy outside of the U.S.: - The WHO has been embarrassing - Czechs held a “farewell party” for COVID-19 one month before their historic outbreak - South Africa seems to have at one time banned the sale of open-toed shoes, because of ... reasons

    Here is a rules-and-reasons approach to public health communication and policy that treats citizens like intelligent people who care about the justification behind pandemic laws

    I wrote about virus illiteracy—and how even Blue State elites still don't get basic facts about COVID - LA closed playgrounds as it kept malls open - Philly banned outdoor gatherings while PA kept bars open - New York closed gyms—but only after 10pm

    This is a sensational piece of analysis about climate change and the global energy picture. And no better day to read it than the first evening of Channukah, a celebration of spontaneous energy-efficiency.

    What’s a latke? It’s a shredded Andean tuber, fried like a buckwheat pancake, which was substituted for Italian cheeses, once eaten to honor a mistaken reading of obscure variants of an apocryphal text. But it’s crispy, and delicious.

    How a Motte-and-Bailey Coup works Trump: I won! Trumpist media: Well, at the very least, PA should overturn the election results. Lawyers in court: Well, at the very least, PA should discount the mail ballots. GOP electeds: Well, at least let's restrict future voting access!

    The president's team is essentially engaged in a real-world DDOS attack on a fair and certified election. Yes, they're failing in the courts, but far-right media is cheering it on, while most GOP voters approve. If you think this is the last time this is happening, you're nuts.

    Some aftershocks are obvious: Kids can’t get to school, ppl can't get to work, downtown retailers are hawking merchandise to empty streets. But it also has major implications for the future of work: Big corporate HQs can't rally ppl back to the office if the subways are a mess.

    The transit-pocalypse facing America's densest cities could be a massive story in 2021 NYC is discussing “doomsday cuts” with $50 billion in losses. DC could close 19 stations. You can't have a modern city with a debilitated subway system.

    I wrote about our collective underestimation of people's drive to see loved ones, the limits of lecturing, and how all I want for Christmas is a new public health strategy.

    This is like America dealing with the threat of automobile casualties by banning transmission technology in California while taking down all the streetlights in Alabama.
