Please read, esp if you are using government data to make ‘informed decisions’ about what you do or don’t do at the moment. Spoiler alert: local data is useless unless you add pillar 2 data, which is not available at local level in England and even regional data has 14 day lag 🤯
NEW with @AndyBounds, @sarahnev & @Laura_K_Hughes: The UK government’s published numbers of new cases at local authority level only include pillar 1 and *not* pillar 2 cases, meaning as many as 90% of new cases are missing from the data ft.com/content/301c847c-a317… Thread:

Why the heck do academic journals have such strict/varied formatting guidelines on first submission? (Beyond length) Isn’t formatting for a journal, only to be rejected, just a massive unnecessary cost imposed on scientists? Couldn’t scientists put their time to better use?
