It sees very unlikely that we're going to completely eradicate COVID any time soon so I'd hope the bar for reopening schools is (a lot!) higher than this. https://t.co/6c6SudopYy https://t.co/b9eOvNnLd5 — PolitiTweet.org

@skepticalsports I don't have a good sense for how common tennis participation is worldwide. One thing about basketball, though, is that the extreme correlation between height and talent makes the talent easier to identify at a young age. — PolitiTweet.org

@skepticalsports I'd think basketball would do much better than tennis by that metric, for example. — PolitiTweet.org

@skepticalsports It seems like the operative question should be: If a randomly selected person from throughout the world had outstanding natural talent at X sport, what is the chance they would actually see that talent through to compete in that sport at the highest level? — PolitiTweet.org

"How should people change their behaviors once they've been vaccinated but there's still a lot of community spread?" is another question that requires nuance but often isn't getting it. — PolitiTweet.org

One obvious example is you've seen an uptick in people scolding images depicting both behaviors that are quite dangerous (that supermarket in Florida where no one's wearing a mask!😬) and others showing e.g. relatively safe outdoor activities. We've lost some of the nuance there. — PolitiTweet.org

I guess what I'm getting at is that uncertainty demands nuance, but ironically, people aren't looking for nuance at times of greater uncertainty! They're tired of the uncertainty and want simplicity and even dogmatism. — PolitiTweet.org

Don't think there's been any point in the pandemic at which there's been such a confusing mix of good *and* bad COVID news. I actually think the good > bad, but there's plenty of both, and it's worth thinking about how people react to the uncertainty and confusion that creates. — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki @DaytimeDan It's so tiresome at this point. There are times when the "leave it to the scientists!" dunk makes sense. But there are also times when people who aren't epis per se have relevant expertise to COVID-adjacent questions. — PolitiTweet.org

@notdred @conorsen @mattyglesias Recent polls are pretty consistent in showing 50% eager, 15% opposed, 35% wait-and-see. I think we need strategies to work on that 35% group, but Gottlieb is right that states will need/want to open it up to everyone once we have enough for the 50%. — PolitiTweet.org

Makes sense. About 250m Americans aged 16+, and polls show about 50% of them (125m) are *eager* to get the vaccine. So once we've gotten enough doses to cover these people, which Gottlieb says will happen by the end of March, we start to have a demand problem. — PolitiTweet.org

@conorsen Fairly or not, I don't think LeBron's ever going to displace MJ in the minds of some people. (Well, maybe if he gets up to 6 or 7 titles.) And you do have a career vs. peak issue there. I think the consensus will gradually move toward MJ & LeBron being co-GOATs. — PolitiTweet.org

p.s. I suspect the consensus is right. Brady's the leader in career approximate value, the only attempt I'm aware of to compare players across positions. And that only accounts for the regular season; he's also the only NFL player with 6 Super Bowl rings. https://t.co/u81Q530doj https://t.co/ukQINvXZ3t — PolitiTweet.org

@Dereklowe Sorry if this is a dumb question, but given all their issues, do you think it might make sense for AZ to say "we're starting over and working on AZ 2.0" rather than updating with a version 1.1? — PolitiTweet.org

As recently as 2019, a USA Today panel put Brady at #2, behind Jerry Rice, so it's the 6th ring + this season that's catapulted him. https://t.co/ZESzSRgQ7Y — PolitiTweet.org

I guess I didn't realize the extent to which this had really become the *consensus* view. 68% say Brady's the GOAT, including 51% who say he's CLEARLY the GOAT. — PolitiTweet.org

Alternatively, the green and orange lines show how many people visited another household / had another household over in the past week. Those also show a slight decline to ~40% now from ~50% in the summer, though you can make out Thanksgiving and X-Mas spikes. https://t.co/8bqId1NIed — PolitiTweet.org
