    Speaking of public goods websites: the best aggregate source of COVID-19 data is not maintained by the @WHO, the @CDCgov, or any media outlet, but by the 10 person team at @OurWorldInData. Really excellent work: https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus .https://twitter.com/patrickc/status/1256748110782410752 …

    Besides Wikipedia and the Internet Archive, what are the internet's finest "public goods" websites? (And are there any obvious ones that don't exist that should?)

        @COVID19Tracking had done most work in organizing testing data, especially in early days I couldn't find any other good source for testing, they are doing a great job

        Now, imagine a world in which @OurWorldInData's data contradicts WHO's data and gets banned on youtube, @SusanWojcicki.

        Seems what youtube is trying to avoid @SusanWojcicki is to change its algorithm away from reinforcing biases (aka: if once watches a conspiracy theory video soon all other videos will be conspiracy-like). Censoring content is the self-serving (and dangerous) way to go

        Very good to hear that the work has been useful. I hope what we are working on right now will make it more useful in the days ahead.

        May I suggest that in the "Add country" list, you put the first half of the countries in the left-hand column, and the others in the other column? As it stands, I scroll through the list and half the time I fail to find the country I'm looking for and have to flick my eyes over.

        Pretty reports, EXCEPT the numbers are BOGUS! CDC cut the # of US deaths by half to < 38k as of May 1st, and may continue to drop the death #s from covid-19 https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm …

        Ok, cut was closer to 40%, they had 62k before. And why add pneumonia or influenza? CDC also shows annual trends are lower - thanks to SIP and therapeutic prescriptionspic.twitter.com/ALQZapbks9
