@davidpapineau Although Neyman-Pearson can lead some to a confusion of terms, mathematical statistics is largely (almost entirely) based on similar asymmetries, namely inequalities, not equalities. https://t.co/Kzgi4BaUeP — PolitiTweet.org

Also I thank @yaneerbaryam for directing me to the portable Hepa filter (see picture below) as, it is turning out, airline precautions may not be sufficient. It is extremely easy to build. https://t.co/zaoMgebbLA — PolitiTweet.org
