The information overload on #COVID19 can feel immense. Here& #39;s a few strategies for cutting through the noise, as well as a few updates: https://twitter.com/skokielibrary/status/1246165817047363584">https://twitter.com/skokielib...

First, an op-ed by @cwarzel that analyzes the potential for weaponizing misinformation re: #COVID19 and what we as responsible readers could do to cultivate nuance in our approach to dealing with a pandemic: http://nyti.ms/2ULtWna ">https://nyti.ms/2ULtWna&q...

Second, from @Millicentsomer - who do we consider an & #39;essential& #39; worker during the outbreak of #COVID19? How much does making-do when it comes to PPE jeopardize both essential workers and the lives they care for? http://bit.ly/2JE8Pgj ">https://bit.ly/2JE8Pgj&q...

Third: while the first known case of #COVID19 was reported in China, the spread of the disease can be traced back to European countries& #39; slow response to effectively closing borders and limiting contact. @joepenney with a detailed report: http://bit.ly/3aNowgW ">https://bit.ly/3aNowgW&q...

Fourth, let me stress that #socialdistancing is *key* to preventing #communityspread right now. However, we human beings are not intended to be isolated like this. Pay attention to the strangeness of this moment: http://bit.ly/34cEA9C ">https://bit.ly/34cEA9C&q...

An excellent thread on how to read and interpret data, and why favoring this methodology over anecdotes is vital at this stage of our understanding of #COVID19 https://twitter.com/steak_umm/status/1247343900475490304?s=19">https://twitter.com/steak_umm...
