RT @michaelmina_lab: This is extremely common.

Don’t assume that you are negative at day 5 of COVID. No no no. That is a bad idea.

Please assume you are highly infectious at day 5 and Test yourself before you leave isolation. If negative, GREAT! If positive… please don’t go and infect others.

To @TWenseleers and @jbloom_lab Is there a limit to how much more transmissible this virus can get? I am sure many are wondering this.
RT @TWenseleers: New study confirms that Omicron BA.4&5 gets its selective benefit from immune escape, but that it also has lower ACE2 binding affinity. Hopefully means that immune escape is traded off against contagiousness and that this could cause evolution towards lower R0 over the long term.

Thank for replying Monica!
RT @MonicaGandhi9: @NChildersMEP @EricTopol @NChildersMEP, @michaelzlin, I am sorry if cellular immunity seems to be doubted but not doubted in infectious disease; there is a lot known about T/B cells before SARS-CoV-2 and now even more research on it with this virus; many articles here to help

Perhaps @EricTopol and @MonicaGandhi9 can argue this? It is hard on the rest of us to hear all the disagreements. How are we supposed to know what to do?
RT @michaelzlin: Here are 2 well known tweeters telling us not to worry about antibody waning because T cells will protect us. Not correct, unfortunately.

RT @CovidDataReport: Based on the data today from the CDC which states and I quote

*The vaccinated made up 42% of fatalities in January and February during the highly contagious omicron variant's surge,*

How the heck can anyone go on feel safe even being vaccinated? Yet the public thinks it's over

Reinstate the mask mandate. Wear an KN95 indoors with people and don’t forget ventilation and HEPA air cleaning. Make a #CorsiRosenthalBox

RT @EricTopol: Notable
The BA.4, BA.5 variants are responsible for this increase in Gauteng and elsewhere in South Africa, without a BA.2 wave, and this may signify lack of cross-immunity from Omicron BA.1 (Wave 4)

How much more transmissible can it get?
