      Tonight I tested positive for COVID-19. My symptoms are mild (light cough) and I’m feeling fine. I have begun a quarantine process in consultation with physicians. As always, my heart is with everyone affected by this global pandemic. ❤️

      There was an indoor component to the event. But we definitely need more information. More in the cluster.https://twitter.com/HowardKurtz/status/1312200574067068930 …

      Three White House reporters, including my old colleague Mike Shear of the NYT, have tested positive for the virus. They have either traveled with Trump or covered WH events with crowds of mostly unmasked people

      One more senator. This is how a cluster works, and these people are tested heavily. Imagine this cluster without access to testing, igniting more clusters. That’s the catastrophic process my article has been trying to explain, and the one we should gear up to avoid.https://twitter.com/edokeefe/status/1312378700818722822 …

      If UK was late to notice because they ran out of columns in EXCEL, this is an indescribable failure. Excel screw-ups are known & numerous. No researcher should rely on Excel. Plus, with overdispersion, late is catastrophic because clusters ignite clusters.https://twitter.com/MaxCRoser/status/1313046638915706880 …

      In the UK the number of cases rose rapidly. But the public – and authorities – are only learning this now because these cases were only published now as a backlog. The reason was apparently that the database is managed in Excel and the number of columns had reached the maximum. pic.twitter.com/X4a8keSEHK

      So the White House is not doing backward contact tracing—as they should—to figure out how the cluster started? They’ll miss cases.https://twitter.com/joshmich/status/1313297693054316546 …

      Here we can see the difference between retrospective and prospective contact tracing. The WH is saying it is doing prospective tracing, but doesn't need to to retrospective tracing. https://twitter.com/BMorgenstern45/status/1313268015388127232 …

      🙄Anyone proposing Sweden as a contrarian example has *no idea* what they're talking about. Sweden had a more strict & early indoor gathering limit than most of Europe, never lifted it when others did & everyone 16+ is in virtual school. Japan!

      Canada allows indoor spin class with lower capacity, six-foot radius around bikes and sanitation. So panting crowd indoors but, hey, on clean bikes!
