apple.news/AYydxRdOOQrauvPJNnEaTlg First though, Cyanobacteria, what kind of Alfa-Charlie-Foxtrot blog post ideas am I sharing here? It’s simple really, well they are simple enough, you would think as a proper life form to dedicate a first Epibiodev aka The Epinhood blog post towards. Surely, as an applied Epidemiologist, whose science is designing experiments, starting with an […]

In the EH we are all Hosts
Since COVID-19 minted millions of Epidemiologists overnight, y’all know in Epi we have this triangle framework. On this triangle we hang three charms, the host, the agent, the environment and that’s all I’ll say about it, well other than this. In Epi all humans are hosts. Now in the EH this is usually the paradigm […]

The Purpose of COVID-19 Origin Story is to Increase Distraction Not Safety

A Beautiful Example of Open Source Data Solutions that we Need to Defeat COVID-19
ourworldindata.org/coronavirus-data-explorer When I see beautiful open-source solutions like the ourworldindata.org coronavirus data explorer my faith in humanity’s odds against COVID-19 is buoyed. On a similar note the NYT published an encouraging article yesterday on the “space race” for a COVID-19 vaccine. I combine both updates here because one of the most impactful lessons to me […]

Epidemiology of COVID-19 and George Floyd Protests

EH Official BLM March Solidarity Drop
Look I’m an Epidemiologist so these #BlackLivesMatter (BLM) Protests do scare me from social distancing for outbreak control perspective. However, everything I saw by showing up encouraged me that this particular movement in our grossly unequal and unjust space and time is worthy of our solidarity and attention. Not just for Mr. Floyd, though the […]

Scenario: Epidemiologist and US Front-line Health Worker needs N95 Mask after 14 day exposure precaution quarantine to get back to work with reliable PPE . Theoretically accessible, maybe, but available? Nope.
My existing N-95 collapses now when I inhale so I decided to replace it. Spoke to a lovely woman at top-notch Medical Supply company and they said they are only taking reorders based on limited supply until September. This does not bode well for our battle against COVID-19.
