    @MyriamChalabi⁩ said, “This is a waterfall plot,” and the whole audience in Hall 6 just laughed! Frankly, it’s not a waterfall plot… what you are looking at, in my opinion, is a lake. ⁦@myESMO#esmo22

    Literally dying to help promote anti-science aggression. This what @PeterHotez has been discussing.
    Kelly Canon Dies of COVID Complications After Attending Anti-Vaccine ‘Symposium’. Canon announced on Facebook in November that her employer granted her a religious exemption for the COVID-19 vaccine. “No jabby-jabby for me! Praise GOD!” She died. thedailybeast.com/conservative-a…

    No, there won’t be herd immunity. The virus is endemic. We will learn to do better however. One thing is already clear: vaccine mandates work! We need more of them.

    You are referring to the old Gleevec price. All the drugs in Cuban’s efforts are off-patent. If you google generic Gleevec, you will see that the prices online are in a similar range in price. The $9K figure was the price on patent, and after years of price increases.

    It’s not a terrible analogy. Actually, the fields of cancer research and amelioration of infertility can benefit from more cross-talk and fertilization of new ideas. This is how science works. Step 1: Observation!
    Not really. It is explaining biology. The biological mechanisms have similarities.
