    @Kellerpass Das als Kommentar auf diesen Thread ist ihr bias, sorry. Ich mit meinem bias hätte rausgelesen: Sorge vor Mutationen, kein Kind geht in Schulen bevor nicht 1. Maßnahmen installiert und die Fälle runter sind. 2. die Spreaderhäufigkeit bei Kindern erforscht ist #B117 #Mutationen

    Yeah that's what I've been saying. It's here, under the surface mostly so far. This is a race: people's attention to a new focus on public health measures like masks, ventilation, etc.. v.s. #B117. Do your part, the light is at the end of the tunnel. https://t.co/h5w9s1Ayhi

    Great thread on the evolving calculus of #COVID19 risk by @Bob_Wachter. Discusses the positive and negative contributions of #vaccines and of more communicable #SARSCoV2 variants, including #B117, too. A key truth is that risk comes down to a shifting probability function. https://t.co/FOMSoQPvnv

    1/ Covid Chronicles, Day 307 One of the most challenging parts of Covid has been grappling with decision-making under uncertainty. It’s natural for MDs to weigh risks & benefits; med school trained us in probabilistic decision-making. But it’s an unnatural act for most people.

    Burlington braces for new virus strain with new testing, filter rollout - VTDigger

    Burlington can now test for community presence of the B.1.1.7 strain of Covid-19 itself, but mounting cases and the impending return of college students still gives reason to worry.

    So erschreckend zu sehen, wie schnell die Fälle von #B117 ansteigen, die Dunkelziffer dürfte mangels Sequenzierungen bereits sehr hoch sein. Uns fliegt nun doch Weihnachten um die Ohren. Drücke so dolle die Daumen, dass heute die Kehrtwende beschlossen wird. https://t.co/8nPolmS3Fh

    7) A UK report that suggests the #B117 variant seems to have a higher relative increase in infection attack rates compared to wild type (common strains) for kids 0-9. ➡️B117 increased attack rates across all age groups, but largest % inc in youngest kids. https://t.co/MKEmORjIVx

    #B117 Zitat "während des nationalen Lockdowns im November um 200 bis 400 Prozent zugenommen. Die neue Variante schaffe ein sechs- bis achtmal höheres Wachstum der Fallzahlen pro Monat wie andere" Kann mir das mal jemand erklären wieso das in Großbritannien der Fall sein soll?

    4) As Professor Greenhalgh points out, if schools open; they should definitely reconsider the meager 2 meter rule. It doesn’t work for an airborne aerosol virus. Not only masks, but ventilation— and HEPA Filters key if no ventilation. https://t.co/XlOWrRcTwq

    7) I’m gonna simplify key things with the new attack rate data: —New b117 variant is more contagious (high attack rate) —kids still lower transmission but not as much as before —B117’s increase in attack over the old type appears greater in kids 0-9 than increase in adults.

    6) How much of a beast—suppose we have 1000 cases/day now... with an R=0.86 we could reduce it to 500/day in 2 weeks. ➡️But w/ added contagiousness of B117 variant that has ~60% higher R, in 2 weeks, we’d have 3000 new cases/day instead—3x baseline. ➡️6x higher vs old variant. https://t.co/cIzpAinj23

    4) Bottomline, it seems new UK 🇬🇧 B117 variant has not only ~ 33-36% higher attack rate compared to common #SARSCoV2 type, but it is 43.5-47.5% higher for young kids! ➡️While kids lower risk than adults overall, the new B117 virus is potentially relatively worse for young kids.

    3) Furthermore, in genetic tests of b117, the B117 has 47.5% higher attack rate vs common virus type among kids age 0-9! Compare that w/ only 39.5% higher for B117 among adults. Two separate sets of data—same thing—with both pointing to higher relative increase in young kids. https://t.co/HSrCzk1apd
