      This list is obviously only the tip of the iceberg so I'll end with • A call to follow @DearPandemic, who highlight the invaluable but often unsung work of women in not only communicating the pandemic but doing the science that fights back against Covid and saves countless lives

      • A call to fellow-journalists to do better at featuring women's voices in our coverage of Covid. This is something I strive to do in my stories, but I've certainly fallen short far too oftenhttps://www.kcl.ac.uk/news/women-have-been-marginalised-in-covid-19-media-coverage …

      An observation to finish: A response I often get from women experts on Covid when seeking comment: "thanks, but I don't think I have much to add to what has already been said" From blokes? Not so much Please give us quotes, you have just as much to add as the men, if not more!

      But to be clear, this is about far far more than [some] women being less eager than [some] men to weigh in, and it's remarkable how often structural gender inequality also plays a big role in who is available to chat and who isn't.

      Just to be clear folks, this list was never meant to be exhaustive — really the full list is about as long as there are women in Science — but a few particularly glaring omissions that I am mortified about are:

      1) @devisridhar who has time and again calmly and clearly set out where we are, where we're headed and what we should be doing about it, all while remaining even-handed and unfailingly positive

      John Burn-Murdoch Retweeted Prof. Akiko Iwasaki

      2) @VirusesImmunity who has been delivering clear and comprehensive immunology courses for free on here for 2 years (read this one in the context of third doses as well as seconds)https://twitter.com/VirusesImmunity/status/1345086669607890945 …

      My first tweet of 2021 is going to be about 1 dose vs. 2 dose vaccine. I have tweeted in the past of the immunological advantages of a 2 dose vaccine. However, given the enhanced transmission variants on the rise, we need a modified strategy. (1/n) https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2020/12/virus-mutation-catastrophe/617531/ …

      4) How on earth did I write this list without including @zeynep, who has time and again been right about Covid where others have been wrong, and is probably my single most recommended follow on Twitter (both for Covid and everything else)
