Why aren't we doing this, South Africa? Poverty alleviation interventions work.

The "Missing Americans" offers another way to look at the U.S. mortality disadvantage, which often focuses on differences in life expectancy, e.g.: @shwoolf ajph.aphapublications.org/do…

1. Thank you to @BostonGlobe for continuing to shine a light on COVID and its impacts on mortality and morbidity. Since the shift in racial/ethnic patterns of deaths is perhaps a bit surprising, I want to walk through our findings and some hypotheses. 🧵

That wastewater trend is not good at all. No idea what the peak will be but there seems to have been a significant increase in transmission in the last week or so. Any good explanations?

I can't help but feel we are witnessing the results of long-term strategy to "divide and rule." As if there are two sides. As if choosing one or the other would save us. Exceptional. Grateful to @busph colleagues @JacobBor. The amazing @edyong209 reports: theatlantic.com/health/archi…
