Description
We start with a catch-up on the latest US numbers.
California rolls back reopening and LA and SD schools announce no in-person classes.
Wal-Mart joins a growing list of retailers requiring face masks. Are we making progress on “politicizing” face masks?
A very extensive seroprevalence study out of Spain looked at over 60,000 people. Ben is excited by this demographic catnip, including implications for infection among children and the amount of asymptomatic cases.
A recent study did autopsies on COVID-19 patients to assess the role of immune-mediated, rather than pathogenmediated, organ inflammation and injury.
We discuss the latest on potential use of human challenge trials.
