   Gonna really have to take a look at this whole science by twitter thing. As for the NatMed paper attacks - you'll know you've actually made it when a bunch of "dudes" think they can make their careers by trashing you.

   For those who actually use their photos there is a definite 'look' for these people.

   It got yanked almost immediately after Eddie posted his tweet last night.

   The fact that Trevor's tweet storm and Nate's countertweet both landed immediately in the NYTimes is rather concerning at least to me.

    Amy Harmon - yes, she should know better. It's worth pointing out the Trevor isn't an epidemiologist - same for Nate,myself, and many others - the only one who's an epidemiologist in that article is Marc. One thing is to report basedon tweets (which is wrong), another is doing it when the person isn't a subject-matter expert - I find that really problematic, especially for something this important. Science by Twitter is not the way to deal with these types ofquestions...

    I still see the Forbes article - https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidnikel/2020/06/07/norway-scientist-claims-report-proves-coronavirus-was-lab-made/#46c2c45b121d

    Apparently written by their top science journalist... [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2020-06-08 at 8.53.24 AM.png]
