If you want a little politics cleanser, I finally made a short write up on our recent paper looking at how the size of an outbreak forecast ensemble impacts its performance: thefoxlab.wordpress.com/2024/10/28/new…

Awesome!

In New York Amsterdam News, Dr. Lauren Ancel Meyers of Meyers Lab at UT Austin, @UTPandemics, UT Austin, NaturalSciences @ UT, Dell Medical School, & The University of Texas System explains that, although increased immunity in the population reduces COVID-19 severity, it does not prevent its spread entirely.
