Where to read the scientists’ opinion?

[Maidofdishonour]

Can anyone recommend websites where we can read what the scientists are saying rather than relying on what comes through Boris?
I am following Tim Spector through the Zoe App.

There are some excellent scientists on twitter.
Try sailorooscout who is a scientist working on the moderna vaccine. There are some good journalists, in particular John Burn-Murdoch from the Financial Times.
I also follow Neil Stone who is an infectious diseases doctor from London & apparently the first person to use the word "Covid".
Covid Fact Check UK is good.
There are many others as well.

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/coronavirus/4418929-Data-Stats-and-Daily-Numbers-started-5-December-2021 is often useful as well.

Thanks - there is such a fine like between info overload that I had switched off from social media but I will resume Twitter.
Boris telling us to work from home but still go to the office Christmas party has tipped me over the edge!

Tim Spector is my go-to source of all Covid info. I watch his weekly YouTube video report and basically try to ignore everything else!

Good thread OP. Watching.

I confess to having a little bit of a crush on Tim Spector! I went to a talk he gave on his research into the gut microbiome. Absolutely fascinating stuff

The people I follow on Twitter for covid-related stuff are (in no particular order):

• Devan Sinha
• The Sharing Scientist
• Colin Davis
• Swaledale Mutton Co. (He is genuinely a scientist!)
• Danny Altmann
• Edward Nirenberg
• James Ward
• Meaghan Kall
• Kai Kupferschmidt
• Bloom lab
• Gupta lab
• Trevor Bedford
• Stuart Neil
• John Burn Murdoch
• Andrew Croxford
• John Roberts
• Matt Fletcher
• Susan Hopkins
• Oliver Johnson
• Muge Cevik
• Tim Spector
• Francois Balloux
• Adam Kucharski
• Andrew Lilico

I don't necessarily agree with all of the time, but I feel like they give a good overview of covid science/Maths/modelling/epidemiology. I don't particularly rate Tim Spector. He doesn't have a background in virology or infectious diseases and I think some of his tweets are misleading or downright wrong.

I’d add @chrischirp and @trishgreenhalgh
