And, again, this reflects a random sample of the entire UK population, which is >> more robust than a self-selected sample. The UK has done great work with large random samples like these; see also their work on Long COVID below, for instance. https://t.co/j68wf4wvAa — PolitiTweet.org

Seen discussion of the sample size in the UK study and it's worth pointing out that (although the overall sample size is very large) the number of *positives* is ~similar to the other studies. Note, however, that they do find a statistically significant result (p-value = 0.01). https://t.co/sr0jNndRj3 — PolitiTweet.org

@apoorva_nyc @dzeitzoff And I'll stand by my claim that your coverage has framed the Provincetown study in a misleading and sensationalistic way. That one-word hedge, "may", is doing an awful lot of work against other language that frames this as an incredibly scary and significant development. https://t.co/KkqGsn5oNS — PolitiTweet.org
