I'm already tenured, honored to have had a chance to contribute, had next year's (visiting for now) move to Columbia U already in place and *delayed* by the pandemic. Say whatever else you want about me writing as an outsider, but no, it wasn't an effort to boost my career, lol.

I *do* get an enormous amount of constant push-back that's a version of "how dare you write about all this!". Fine, that's part of writing for the public, and I'll let my pandemic record answer that question. But the idea that it's some career move is, frankly, absurd. ktxbye

In Bitcoin, we often point to the importance of the energy it takes to create "proof of work." The energy required is what secures the entire network. To me, your proof of work is the incredible energy you had to invest to bring such clarity during the past year. Thank you.

Ugh. Sociologists & systems analysts are *exactly* what we needed more of all pandemic!

I don't think there's any need to defend yourself here, regardless of your track record. If anything, a sociologist has *more* expertise to weigh in on different aspects of a pandemic than most medical professions, my own included (oncologist).

I have immensely appreciated your capacity to apply deep analysis across fields and to communicate clearly. As a technical writer myself, your articles this past year are going in my pantheon.

Ditto!
@zeynep writes brilliantly and acutely on all subjects and her analysis throughout the pandemic has been especially valuable!
