Q&A: #Epidemiologist from Brown University’s Pandemic Center on the #hantavirus #outbreak, https://www.brown.edu/news/2026-05-13/hantavirus-outbreak-nuzzo
''I'm not worried about a [hantavirus] pandemic happening here. What I am worried about is that the usual health response that we see out of the U.S. government isn't happening and that this may be the virus telling us that it has gained some increased ability to infect and spread on a more limited basis.''

I let you play with your amateur-microbiologist mindset and let you fantasticallly explaining to your fellow expert colleague what 0.25 dead people mean in a 25 person test group I let you discuss that with #epidemiologist #microbiologist Okay Bye Unless you have serious stuff to give me

I want to share this #health resource with you. “Your Local #Epidemiologist” is written by a member of that scientific community who is dedicated to providing data-driven information to the public as we all watch the #CDC looses credibility from political pressure. They’re an insider. The info is solid and the author will engage on any questions.

During the COVID crisis, politicians had to balance the physical health with the psychological health of citizens.
This simulation emulates that challenge.
Can you find a good balance?

#Russia, suspected cases of unexplained respiratory #illness, https://regnum.ru/news/3956457
Moscow , March 30, 2025, 06:44 — IA Regnum. Information about the new virus allegedly spreading in Russia should be carefully studied, waiting for the results of at least one study. #Epidemiologist Gennady Onishchenko explained to TASS that the symptoms could be an individual feature or a complication from another disease.

Too many interventions, you lose.
Too many deaths, you lose.
Find the right balance, you win. -

From an opinion piece in the New York Times by Caitlin Rivers, PhD, an #epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health: “There is very little that Americans can agree on these days. … But one thing nearly everyone agrees on? #Vaccines are good.” https://tinyurl.com/4hyrw85r

#US withdrawal from #WHO will hurt us all
US is biggest donor to WHO, and loss of this income is likely to have a significant impact on organization, which develops international #health guidelines, investigates disease outbreaks, and acts as an information-sharing hub for member states.
But the US will also lose out. “It’s a very tragic and sad event that could only hurt the United States in the long run,” says William Moss, #epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins #PublicHealth

Maybe it's time to role-play a politician managing a pandemic:

COVID is still with us. It's easy to criticize one side or the other for their position on this pandemic. But can we actually manage a pandemic?
This simulation gives you some idea on the challenge faced by epidemiologists and politicians:

Covid is still with us. Last week's DNC's event was a spreader.
This pandemic simulation gives us experience with various interventions.

I believe simulations are better tests for proving competence than exams. This simulation has politicians managing a pandemic. Would you trust a politician to this task if he/she failed the simulation?

Would you trust a pilot who failed the simulator tests?
We need to test #politicians and senior civil servants with #simulations.
Would you trust a decision maker who failed this #pandemic simulation?

Can you deploy interventions to save lives and lift interventions to retain social stability?

My wife, a maternal and child health #epidemiologist , brought these back from the National #Tribal #Health Conference. I think it’s the general tagline of the National #Indian Health Board. Really perfect for #masks

You can role-play a politician or #epidemiologist trying to manage a #pandemic. Not that easy. Lives are at stake. People don't like to be told what to do.

Well that went south fast; my kid passed out in class, I brought him home and he's positive for COVID but the doc thinks he's fine. So now the house is exposed again, I was supposed to fly out tomorrow but I'm an #Epidemiologist so no, I don't want to be anyone's source of infection, cancelled flight, hotel, beers with friends and #GardnerMuseum.
Crap. -
As a #Pulmonary #Epidemiologist I agree that this is a reasonable question to ask!

@sentimentaldom Thanks, my wife works in #AddictionMedicine as a PA doing primary care so she's well versed but I'm just a simple #Epidemiologist living in academia so I have no practical knowledge (will I can fix my own motorcycle most of the time, most of the time....). Anyway working in #PublicHealth though I feel like I SHOULD know this stuff and be able to help. So really, thanks for what you do and I'll happily sign up for a training!

Need qualified opinion.
Considering that avian flu has spread to many different Mammals, and there is currently great and warranted concern,
should I stop feeding the sparrows in the near future?

Who are the #epidemiologists and infectious disease #modellers on Mastodon?
Will update this list as I come across them & if you “favourite” or “boost” this toot you will be updated every time there is an addition.
This helps create an “Epidemiology/Modellers” list on mastodon to browse their focused stream.
