that Medium piece on running & shedding the virus is a perfect example of flawed amateur analysis/information on the margins i wrote about last week. is it a topic worth studying? yes! does it basically ignore epidemiology in favor of its conclusion? yes! https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/v74az9/the-viral-study-about-runners-spreading-coronavirus-is-not-actually-a-study">https://www.vice.com/en_us/art...

maybe the worst part though is that the people who think they can just blow past peer reviewed processes of science w/ their armchair epidemiology are actually making lots of work for the real science folks who have to take time away to debunk them!

Anyhow, if you& #39;re interested in a 3000 word deep dive on this complicated dynamic that& #39;s likely to really mess with our collective heads for the next year...I& #39;ve got just the piece for you! https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/03/opinion/sunday/coronavirus-fake-news.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/0...
