Dr. Nigam Shah things tech company tracking abilities should be given to gov'ts as hotels/school gyms are during pandemics. @StanfordHAI@twitter.com . (I personally have a bit of an issue with this.)

On authoritarian and centralised gov't and #COVID19: "It's a tough call" and that being "right not first" is particularly difficult. "news deserts" and "health deserts" overlap a lot and that's hard to deal with - @DoctorYasmin@twitter.com @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

Michele Bary points out http://nextstrain.org/ which tracks #COVID19 genomes to keep an eye out for mutations. @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

CDC numbers are disappearing from their website, which is "perplexing". The CDC is capable of providing us with good data. - @DoctorYasmin@twitter.com at @StanfordHAI@twitter.com #COVID19 #AI

On Quality of Data: "w/o good data, our models will exponentiall bad results because they all use exponential coefficients" … says current laws prevents good data - Nigam Shah @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

"Interdependence Sovreignty", what we learn about #COVID19 can be applied to environmental health, human health, animal health. We need evidence-based interventions informed by #AI - Michele Bary @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

Michele Bary gives example of Italian town of Vo. They tested w/o symptoms, found 3% of ppl were infected and contained the virus. No new cases! #COVID19 @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

Michele Bary is covering Singapore, South Korea, and Hong Kong response @StanfordHAI@twitter.com. All of which were particularly vulnerable to #COVID19 . Singapore did not shelter in place, but tested extensively, gave "stay at home" notices, and were tracked via cell. V. strict quarantines

Seema Yasmin (@DoctorYasmin@twitter.com ) at @StanfordHAI@twitter.com "we need to protect journalists from the diseases they cover". She's building a toolkit for them. Ask her about it!

Seema Yasmin (@DoctorYasmin@twitter.com) at @StanfordHAI@twitter.com drawing comparisons to fake news about Ebola propagated by Russian cyber operatives, and anti-vac movements.

Seema Yasmin (@DoctorYasmin@twitter.com ) currently speaking about balancing ethics and holding officials to account during COVID-19 at @StanfordHAI@twitter.com . Dr. Yasmin is a Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer and comes from a journalistic background. Woo interdisciplinary researchers!

.@StanfordHAI@twitter.com is currently remembering Prof. Gita Ramjee who recently lost her life to COVID-19. Prof Ramjee was a prominent HIV researcher.

Dr. Nigam Shah speaking at @StanfordHAI@twitter.com, "We should be treating counties as one big hospital". Had an opportunity to grab lunch with Dr. Shah at one of the @McGillQLS@twitter.com , he truly embodies a multidisciplinary approach

He asks to reach out at http://www.tinyurl.com/sm-covid-query.

"What we need now is serological testing..." - @StanfordHAI@twitter.com

I can’t tell if they’re more upset they’ve likely been phished or if they received two (TWO!) emails in English (from a Crown Corporation). Doesn’t sound like the type of person to use a password manager...

Paying for non-EV SSL Certificates is a bit like the corporate version of making it rain but picking up the bills after, right? Strictly a flex, but like, if you have Danielle Bregoli money and not Kanye West money.

If jeans had 100% fewer useless rivets in them, the world would be a better place. #WarOnUpholstery

Québec, as usual, understands that booze and weed are essential services.
