Reply to A study of NFL games during the 2020 season suggests a link between attendance and COVID spikes in surrounding counties 14 and 21 days later. The inferred connection held strongest for games attended by 20,000-plus fans by Wagamaga
Interesting, because most of these games were held outside with social distancing. I thought it had become accepted that covid doesn’t spread as easily in outdoor settings

Reply to Polarization around climate change is growing on Twitter. Since COP21, engagement with climate sceptics has grown 4 times faster than pro-climate content. At the same time, criticism of the COP summits as a failure has grown 5-fold. by fractalfalcon

Rules for thee, but not for me.
