RT @AndyBurnhamGM: In the absence of a Government commitment to do so, I promised to publish regular updates on regional R numbers. So here’s a table published today by @cmmid_lshtm. Not a great deal of “room for manoeuvre”, as the Chief Scientific Adviser told the @10DowningStreet daily briefing. https://t.co/CR9d8rwniG

RT @BrennanSpiegel: This graph is amazing. It shows that measuring #SARSCoV2 levels in municipal sewage almost perfectly predicts forthcoming #COVID19 cases with a full week's notice (R=0.994). It's one of several discoveries in this new study from @Yale: https://t.co/hZVdXebx2D. C-19 is #InThePoop https://t.co/shNzTKYoYP

RT @AdamJKucharski: I spent this weekend refining our contact tracing analysis. One of the things that’s always stood out is that for these targeted measures to work, we need public adherence to isolation/quarantine to be very high. But I fear it’s now going to be far more difficult to achieve this.

RT @davidallengreen: The sheer beauty of telling part of the story, letting Cummings and cabinet mugs adapt their excuses to what they think is the story, and then telling the rest of the story Well done @guardian and @DailyMirror *chefs kiss* https://t.co/4IzZsUIsMb

RT @jwusher: I usually roll my eyes at zoomers on all sides blarting about such and such a journalist being biased but Laura Kuenssberg tweeting another journalist who has just broken a huge story to tell them they're wrong and give them the Government line is not a good look.

RT @trishgreenhalgh: I’ve muted the word Cummings long ago, so I’m only seeing 5% of the tweets, but run this one by me again: he has COVID symptoms so he drives the length of the country to deliver a potentially contagious child to a household of two elderly people, and he wants to keep his job? 😡

RT @arusbridger: Listen carefully to three stages of reporting on Dominic Cummings. 1) “sources say.” 2) “I gather that” 3) repeat the source’s story, adopting it as fact

RT @jburnmurdoch: Most useful thread I’ve read on the dynamics of Covid transmission. By an expert, and packed full of links to evidence. Indoor spaces and or prolonged face-to-face contact account for large majority of Covid transmission. Walking past someone in street/park much lower risk. https://t.co/fnMrDjAxfq
