There’s one extraordinary front page today in Russia which sums up Moscow’s attempts to link Ukraine and the West to the Crocus City concert hall massacre. #ReadingRussia


This is a really bonkers way to run critical global health infrastructure. @theosandeson has made huge contributions in open-source tools and analytical research, contributions that rely on access to GISAID. We can't have people like him being cut off on a whim.

I am a researcher studying viruses. I have contributed to the sequencing of more than a million genomes deposited in the GISAID database. Last week I found that my access to bulk downloads from GISAID had been cut off without cause or explanation. [1/3]

Is there any accountability for the NY Times and the editors who published this headline, minutes after the blast and seconds after getting a call from the Hamas operative who told them this story? They have the blood of future casualties in their hands.

If not aware @BristOliver is locked out of his account due to a password issue. Meanwhile, he is posting all his usual brilliant graphs and analysis on his alt account @orbit_silver So go follow him there ⤵️

📄 📄 Our molnupiravir work is now out after peer-review! We definitively demonstrate that molnupiravir has resulted in viable SARS-CoV-2 viruses with significant numbers of mutations, in some cases with onwards transmission of mutated viruses. nature.com/articles/s4158…


Oliver Johnson (@BristOliver) is locked out of his main account right now and doesn't know when or if he will be able to get back in, but he is alive and well and still producing enlightening mathematical insights at another well-known blogging site (tinyurl.com/rabbitwisdom).
