#epitwitter I've read that flattening the curve results in the same number of people getting infected - livescience.com/coronavirus-fl… Is this a common misconception?

#MedTwitter if you want to understand epidemic modelling all that you need is two packs of cards and a few rules. stochanswers.com/education/epid…

Discrete stochastic model of an epidemic. When the minimal SIR model is scaled the ratio of growth to exponential growth is logit-normally distributed. Can't find a journal interested in publishing though. stochanswers.com/education/epid…

Two different card games averaging to exponential decay, two different probability distributions. A test for you - what's the 'significance'? #mathtwitter #mathstwitter #statstwitter #edutwitter stochanswers.com/education/deca…

One of four games. This being actual exponential growth (plus noise) and not the "strong growth" that compound interest doesn't give me on my savings account. #MathsTwitter #MathTwitter #edutwitter #statstwitter stochanswers.com/education/grow…

Barkers Pool, Sheffield was absolutely packed this morning. Three or four times the number I remember last year. #RememberanceDay2024

Bought myself an Israel football scarf on @amazonuk yesterday. For some reason the top search results were keffiyehs and not the nice red Jordanian ones either.

In the 1998 crash GBM was seen not to be sufficient. My model uses affine returns to get a better fit. This results in a combination of GBM and another motion - a mixture distribution of the log-normal plus another. stochanswers.com/studies/financ… #MathTwitter #MathsTwitter #StatsTwitter
