Many thanks @HoustonChron @JulianGi11 for the important article today and for mentioning my new book with @JHUPress @JohnsHopkins The Deadly Rise of Anti-science: A Scientist’s Warning
Wastewater update: Biobot had adjusted their last two weekly estimates down a bit. My Nov. 30th model missed the peak number by 0.6% 😅. Numbers still very high but dropping. 🔸1,270,000 new infections/day 🔸1 in every 26 Americans currently infected
🔹️Preliminary winter forecast is out. As JN.1 Pirola grows, it is forecast to push numbers up quickly in the coming weeks. There is a decent amount of uncertainty on how far JN.1 will penetrate our population's resistances, so a reasonable range for the peak is provided.
Biobot calibration charted over the last 4 years. 🔸️2nd highest peak was reached around New Years, at 1 in 22 infected. 🔸️Current WW numbers today are still higher than last winter's peak.
Out today is @danguterman’s Carol & The End of The World. I had the pleasure of watching the pilot last night, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best things I’ve seen in ages. I hope American adult animation continues to expand its range like this. youtu.be/RlFvhRhY2Nc?si…

EXCELLENT BREAKING NEWS: The judge in E. Jean Carroll’s case not only ruled that Donald’s Access Hollywood tape is ADMISSIBLE in her second trial, but Donald is also BARRED from suggesting or implying that he didn't sexually abuse her.
BREAKING NEWS: Special Counsel Jack Smith has just notified the court that Donald has failed to produce a single document of discovery in classified document case.
📈In absence of the Biobot data this week, the NWSS CDC Wastewater data will be used. The recent increase puts us into 2nd highest levels, only behind December 2021. 🔸1,590,000 new infections/day 🔸1 in every 210 became infected today 🔸1 in every 21 people currently infected
Many thanks @AliVelshi @WagnerTonight @MSNBC for highlighting my new book with @JHUPress @JohnsHopkins this week. The toughest book I’ve had to write bc it tells a dark chapter in our nation’s history, unfortunately happening now.
