Cluster. K. Overdispersion. Airborne. Backward tracing. (Words and concepts we need the talk more about.)https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1312079653486632961 …

A superspreading event. They have to trace this back asap.https://twitter.com/KellyannePolls/status/1312214949658152960 …

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

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 …

The claim in the Tweet (ran out of columns) does not match what is in the text of the article (file size was too big)
Yeah reading up now, but both are inexcusable. One does not do data analytics like this in Excel. There are so many other appropriate tools.
My reading is Excel (or more likely CSV) is being used as the transport format for test centres to export their data to the Govt's central database, rather than what the database itself is running on
It does sound like file size limit. And it sounds like it was more than about exporting files: "The technical issue has now been resolved by splitting the Excel files into batches."pic.twitter.com/jamenf89Fy
