Dropping isolation makes work & socialising riskier & boosters are waning, covid keeps evolving & it's harder to know about local case levels. Basically govt plans that we will all get covid several times - like a cold but with a much more dangerous disease. Not science based

Going to say this again because it's important. Case-control studies to determine prevalence of long COVID are completely flawed science, but are often presented as being scientifically robust. This is not how we can define clinical syndromes or their prevalence! A thread.

Can a mentoring intervention decrease the gender gap in willingness to compete? The answer is yes! It can also reduce the gender gap in earnings expectations. New WP with @ThomasBuser @Armin_Falk @FabianKosse
