      Me to tween: "I'll be in the office now for a quick interview." Tween: "blah blah no why but.." Me trying to elicit cooperation of tween (who's been to a Sanders rally): "Bernie Sanders is also being interviewed!" Tween, ears perking up: "Can you try to rickroll him?"

      Me, I plan to talk about herd immunity and the rest. Still, I think the tween had the more fun idea. https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2021/03/fourth-surge-variant-vaccine/618463/ …pic.twitter.com/gzhlOnNouJ

          I enjoyed the interview but wish I had read the backstory first.

          Thanks for sharing this part in particular. It’s what concerns me in the UK as we open up (which we should). Hope we can all tread the fine line successfully…

          Hopefully people will participate in the mass testing effort because we know that will stop it.

          Good work @zeynep ! Also you could point out #herdimmunity was never thought up by epidemiologists but by neo liberal think tanks who profit from chaos and illness. You could refer to @guardian @BylineTimes and @NaomiAKlein ‘s #disastercapitalismhttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/oct/18/covid-herd-immunity-funding-bad-science-anti-lockdown …

          It would be good if people understood that herd immunity isn't static but friends on the background behavior of the herd. We can get there faster with vaccines, but we can stay there with the kind of bad testing uk is doing, or sewage testing and then surging in screen tests.
