Sunday assorted links
1. Redux of my early August piece on why you should moralize less about national coronavirus performance (now ungated).
3. Local experimentation with the Chinese vaccine seems to be proceeding very well.
4. The progress of Africa’s largest dam, and the international relations problems it is causing.
5. Can they build a Netflix TV series around a woman chess player? The article has other interesting features.
6. Good signs for Covid lung damage recovery (NYT). Not the final word, but you will note I have not been pushing the “long-term damage” line here at MR. Just as I have not been pushing the Vitamin D thing, weak theory in my view and it gets pulled out of the hat with empirical correlations for all sorts of maladies.
