Have spoken with several smart people recently who just joined twitter for the educational benefits -- substantial in med/science! -- but they wisely want to avoid the ugliness.
Here's a great guide, I consult it frequently!

If you see success as a zero-sum game, life becomes a series of cutthroat competitions. You reach the top by taking others down.
If you see the possibility of mutual benefit, your goals shift from crushing the competition to making a contribution. You rise by lifting others up.

Not yet sure about importance of wastewater monitoring in this pandemic?
This tweet was from Early days of Omicron.
#COVID19 virus has given us a unique gift by shedding into wastewater - enabling monitoring with high efficiency approaches.
We should use it - everywhere.

Some of the timeliest data on Covid outcomes by vaccination status comes from New York City and the Seattle area, and the two are telling a consistent story.

NEW chart for US Covid-watchers:
Key question with Omicron wave is whether severe disease — hospitalisations & ICU — decouples from cases.
In the UK it has, but there are signs the US decoupling is weaker, perhaps due in part to lower vax rates.
Track it here for every state:

NEW: first thread of 2022 is an Omicron situation update, starting with a detailed look at UK hospitals, before going international.
Let’s start with severity, and the most important chart:
Despite steep rises in cases and patients, the number on ventilators has barely risen.

NYC new hospitalizations for the past 8 days:
198
220
200
193
214
143
142
176
There's growth, but it's hardly a disaster (today only 12% higher than last Thursday) and hard to distinguish from modest growth that had already been occurring under Delta.
Here’s a look at Thursday’s #COVID19 indicators:
• 13,037,797 vaccine doses administered
• 198 new hospitalizations
• 11,499 new cases
