Thanks❤️to @NicoleRuebsamen for leading our #DataAnalysisClub 📊 In the past months, we read, discussed, and practised #QuantitativeBiasAnalysis #Bias For all those interested, there is a fantastic book by #TimothyLash @ProfMattFox #AlizaFink 📖doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-87…

Para este reporte seguimos un marco de epidemiologia descriptiva para diseñar e implementar nuestro análisis. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. @leskocar @edwardsjk @ProfMattFox doi.org/10.1093/aje/kwac115

My first podcast!👇 Chatting to @ProfMattFox & @haileybanack about Chapter 22 of Modern Epidemiology (4th edition), on time-to-event analysis. Good fun🙂

RT @BreeNewsome: Covid at-home test: $25 Minimum wage: $7.25/hr So, 3 1/2 hours of work at minimum wage to afford an at home test. That’s…

Again, this is about the white power structure seeking to reify itself & find compromise between its most extreme & moderate factions when faced with increasing pressure to allow the birth of multiracial democracy. This is at least the 4th time we’ve gone thru this in the USA

The ongoing history of Black & Indigenous resistance to white settler colonialism is actively suppressed to maintain a narrative that white colonizers granted us freedom & that we must peacefully petition them via the system they established if we hope to achieve racial equality.

We cannot honestly address US public health, pandemic preparedness, or biosecurity without confronting how our shameful system of mass incarceration––25% of world's incarcerated with only 4% of global population––undermines health & safety for everyone. healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377…

This hurts. I commend the authors for this robust investigation. Takeaway, even among low-risk pediatric surgical patients outcomes are still worse for Black kids. #healthequity nytimes.com/2020/07/20/healt…

One of my junior SEED Lab members said they're applying to our grad program because being a member of this lab is SO BENEFICIAL to them and I thought today was gon' be tear-free but I was wrong.😭❤ I'm always stunned & humbled when they talk about what our group means to them.✊🏽

I do this with all my twitter polls and it turns out you all love me.

It would be interesting if, before you were allowed to download a paper, you had to input information on what your prior was on the exposure-outcome relationship. Would provide a wealth of info and allow interesting Bayesian analyses.

So the question is, given how steeply hospitalizations have risen, how steeply will deaths go up and will it mirror the increase in hospitalizations? My hope is we have learned how to treat COVID better but I’m not sure yet.

Sobering findings from largest study of #COVID19 patients admitted to ICU in the United States: 2215 adults in 65 hospitals in March-April 2020 Mean age 60 years 39.5% died (6.2% still hospitalized by end study) From 15% in young people to 63% in older jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

I never thought a podcast on epidemiologic methods could be so fun and engaging. Thank you @haileybanack @ProfMattFox @EpiEllie for a great first episode of your #SERiousEpi podcast #epitwitter Looking forward to the next one!
