I wrote this in late February—there still wasn't any helpful pieces on why we needed to flatten the curve! Late February! Why not? (Can't find traditional media pieces before mine who explained the term—the phrase isn't mine, of course, it's well-known).https://twitter.com/writesaacson/status/1245336551292375040 …

Some of this increase may well be due to hospitals being overloaded. As I tried to explain in the piece on top of this thread, and throughout late Jan and February on social media and in articles, *this* is why “but the flu” comparisons were so misplaced. https://twitter.com/b_judah/status/1245852365464449025 …

Did you see this study about mask effectiveness that was just released?https://www.twitter.com/bencowling88/status/1246004236590010369 …

Just saw this and thought of this thread right away. Hopefully the debate about mask wearing is drawing to a close (probably laughably optimistic to presume this, but still) and the phase of using them to slow the spread can begin. Too bad there's a lot of misinformation to undo

And the way to mitigate the supposed harm is with very simple messaging. ”My mask protects you, yours protects me. Don’t be an a**hole, wear a f****ng mask”

And I think, after hcw get all the N95s they need, the next tranche should go to people who have to work with lots of people, like physical therapists, dental offices, podiatrists, home health care workers and on
