Wasn’t it Forrest Gump who said “Stupid Gives as Stupid Dies?” I dunno - something like that.    @NYTimes 7/24/20

In the long-term care facilities the coronavirus finds what it likes. And takes it.  #NYTimes 5/10/20

The improbable dearth of death as one moves east into the blue. The similarity to a health data transparency map would be conspicuous if such a thing existed. #reddit 5/10/20

#covid19 list of contact tracing tech.   MIT Technology Review 5/10/20

#PPP #CARESAct #COVID19 That shape again, though this time looks like someone mis-addressed the checks intended for the Southeast + sent them to the NORTHeast. Payouts to #RedStates to delay #ReOpening would make sense, but the exact opposite? Go figure. @NewYorkFed @warren 5/7/20

@NYTimes Once again that uncanny resemblance, and so evocative: “Sow the wind...” ,  “Fool me once...”,  or perhaps, “Men are punished by their sins, not for them.”  @smervosh @LazaroGamio @PopovichN 5/5/20

@apple #MobilityTrends as an array of all US states sorted bottom left > top right showing suppressed movement since the #march2020 #covidcrash and unfolding #releaseVariability.  Tourist economies NV/FL/HI show their pain more nakedly in context   apple maps  5/4/20

Plucked from @apple​,  an evolving typology of mobility trends for major countries trying to re-mobilize out of #Covid19 paralysis.  Color stamps contain region abbreviations and iso 3166-2 country ids.   As always, no China.   

@apple maps #MobilityTrends crowdsourcing the #CovidCrash and the tentative crawl back to baseline. Did Sweden do it right?  5/3/20

@NateSilver538 presenting the terrifying uncertainties in aggregated state level #Covid19 forecast comps for 3 weeks out. @FiveThirtyEight, awesome as always.  5/3/20

@NPR dispenses with complexity and presents trailing 21 day #Covid19 cases and deaths by absolute intensity. More simple and honest than the growth rate + doubling time versions that have taken over everywhere else. 5/3/20

@washingtonpost presents relative vulnerability of high profile mall tenants as… a mall. In the midst of #RetailApocalypse, what brands can survive an actual apocalypse?  5/3/20

@mckinsey assessing industry and employment vulnerability. Anticipating the pain and quantifying latencies in #ReopeningAmerica 5/3/20

purple = blue + orange :: covid = black + hispanic.  approximately. @NYCHealthSystem here + @NYTimes here.  @lpolgreen 4/30/20

Another persistent @FT chorplethic data staple: Anti-Covid regulatory #stringency by country. The animation is enlightening. Not likely it will relax as quickly as it constricted, unfortunately.  4/28/20

The staple @FT #StreamGraph morphs from #DeathFunnel to wineglass, but… do we really believe this is its shape yet? It has a nose of Anglo American sample bias and finishes lean for lack of #ExcessDeath. @sdbernard 4/28/20

Simple and delicious @tranopticon @mapbox. While providing more detail than the typical pedestrian will probably be using to find her way around town, the whole NYC walkable landscape is articulated here from the city’s sidewalk database. Beautiful. 4/28/20
