Monday assorted links
1. Gottlieb and McClellan, both former FDA heads, call for accelerated vaccine approval for designated groups, without relaxation of broader standards (WSJ).
3. A time-lapse map of every nuclear explosion through 1998.
4. “We find no evidence of manipulation of Chinese COVID-19 data using Benford’s Law.”
6. Open-air winter schools in New England, in pre-complacency times.
7. Life on Venus? No one cares about that either…(NYT) As a kid I was convinced there was life on Venus, and was never persuaded by the impossibility arguments. So today (while this remains uncertain) I am feeling ever so slightly vindicated in one of my earlier specific beliefs.
