It's too early to say with reliable data. We will definitely know in 2-3 weeks with data from many European countries. In Italy, it looks like the percentage of younger hospitalised people is 12%, but growing. https://www.in

How do you target young people exclusively? You can't. The only thing that has worked is China/South Korea style careful tracking, rapid and extensive testing and strict quarantine measures. Nothing else so far is working.

The idea of not testing except the most serious cases, wait for herd immunity is starting to attract criticism from many scientists https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-51892402

You can buy moringa seeds/leaf for much, much less. There is some anecdotal evidence it helps with asthma but I agree you would want to see more studies

Same in the UK. You won't be tested any longer if you show symptoms. I called NHS 111 yesterday because my son has high fever and a cough. 2 hour wait time to speak to someone on the phone, which gives an indication of how many people

If you are interested in the details of how SARS-CoV-2 works, the history of discovery of the ACE2 receptor it binds to, and a potential treatment based on human recombinant ACE2 that has been through phase I and II human trials previously

if you have a drone or have a friend with one, it's pretty easy to do this with aerial photogrammetry. Something like dronedeploy.com makes this very easy with a DJI drone. Draw the area you want to capture as a polygon on google maps

To pass a viral alteration of DNA to offspring, the retrovirus has to infect germline cells, which they usually don't - and in a way that produces a viable offspring, which is even rarer. That's not to say it doesn't happen o

Seconded. You get generally quite well-informed discussion on /r/UKPersonalFinance, no pushing products or shallow reviews which is what you get if you try to Google same type of content. Also the discussion is two way, so you get

I think it's mostly to do with timing. What he is highlighting is risk mispricing when it comes to coal loans (that aren't properly disclosed to shareholders of banks). But the effects of this mispricing - and market competition f

I agree this should be easier, and far more accessible. I'm not sure how this works in the US, but in the UK you can transfer whatever you have accrued in the default (defined contribution) workplace pension into a private pension plan

I think this is great. It's worth actually reading the letters - https://ciff.org/news/ciff-calls-leading-banks-and-regulator... He is asking for banks to publicly disclose their coal loan exposures and significan

Slowing it down has a big impact on one thing - the availability of hospital beds. I've read that 20% of people who get infected will need ICU treatment. If everyone gets sick within a short period of time, will there be enough hospita

I agree. Nothing will slow this down except isolation. Even if it's too early, better too early than too late. What's worse - everyone taking a month off to work from home and watch Netflix with their closest ones, or do nothing a

Timescale, and immediacy of the threat. Humans are not good at long timescale thinking. BTW I don't think these things need to be mutually exclusive. We should take action against all kinds of threats

Without commenting on Tailwind CSS itself, I think the value add here is with the very nice looking UI components designed by Steve Schoger. I would like to see a React component version of this, ready to use with a CMS like https:/&#

It seems it's possible to catch over and over, the body stops producing antibodies fairly shortly after infection has been fought off. There isn't data about mutation yet.

This looks really cool for kids. But shame it's PS4 only - looks like the studio was bought by Sony 10 years ago. I'm not sure how much of what you learn here using a PS4 game controller is transferrable when a young person gradua

I've worked on a few design systems. Thinking about future interoperability and themeability is hard when creating a design system, and it really would make sense to have some conventions that help foster an ecosystem - that can also o

Interesting - do you have a source for that? Makes sense though, and I think it depends on how much heat you extract - you could locally deplete the heat faster than it "regenerates" back to that area through natural radioactive d

Luckily in Finland it's very widely viable. Article in Finnish- but the W/m geothermal potential illustration is in English https://www.gtk.fi/geoenergian-ja-geotermisen-energian-poten...

The best way to heat homes IMHO is geothermal energy. It is clean and renewable. There is an element of electricity consumption, but far less than with direct electric heating. There is a shift in Finland to geothermal, chosen for most new
