Okay, listen. As an immunologist, I feel like everyone needs to hear:

I second this. My friend and I were floored at how good it was.

Data from clinical trials usually isn’t published/released until the study is closed and complete, which this one isn’t.

....yeah I’m gonna go ahead and not trust anything China says about any aspect of this. China’s been desperate to make it look like they have things under control, and they can’t do that if they keep supplying patients for the trial, now can they? Of course that trial is going to end because they say there are no…

“depression is setting in, and that causes inflammation. Inflammation then gives the way to a virus to break into your cells.”

That’s.....not what that study says at all. First of all, you can’t really conclude anything from a sample size of only 175. Secondly, all the patients had the presence of neutralizing antibodies but titers were variable. Only 10 had levels below the level of detection using the assay that they used, which doesn’t…

This kind of reporting drives me nuts, because it’s basically just saying “we don’t yet have evidence that you’re immune” phrased in a panic-inducing way.

I look scary af without mascara, so I’ve been wearing that, at least, every day. I add blush if I have a work Zoom call or something but I’ve been bad about keeping up with lip balm. I’ve also gotten out of the habit of wearing jewelry - I started to miss wearing it so I’m going to make an effort to remember to put on…

I love K’eyush!

Or, maybe you live with someone high-risk and don’t want to expose them.

Narcos was SO good. I think it was probably a little too sympathetic to Escobar - dude was inarguably a monster - but I loved Javier Peña so much it made up for it.

That is one adorable baby.

Bitch, please. We don’t like you because you’re a tone-deaf, dangerous, pseudoscience-peddling hack. And you’re not that great of an actress either.

I mean, Pine is just STUPIDLY hot. I never understood how he could be anything other than everyone’s 1st choice.

I would think that if their first priority is treating the sick, they wouldn’t take the time to ensure medical workers adhere to their very specific version of Christianity. If they want to help, then help - without putting andy strings or conditions on it.

Why are they all so frighteningly, unnaturally orange? Color-matching is a thing, ladies....

Exactly.  He just brushes aside all the dickwaving going on at the WH and drops the science hammer.

That’s what I’m wondering. Does he think “invoking P”, as he stupidly puts it, just means that he gets to bully companies into doing what he wants instead of, you know, supporting those companies financially as they transition to making ventilators?

Also, what about those of us who filed in 2018 but now have a different bank account?  Have they mentioned any way to update your information, or do I just assume I’ll never see the money?

Yes. I also wish the news (looking at you, CNN) would stop shaming people for going outside, because that’s going to lead people to think “omg I can’t leave my house”, which leads to them feeling trapped and more likely to make dumb decisions. Not to mention the tool that can take on someone’s mental health.
