[FRIAM] SFI virtual workshop: After the Wave

Tue Apr 7 12:51:26 EDT 2020

Steve, 

Perhaps we might talk about this on Friday.   I guess the questions are, “Can we eliminate community transfer?”  and, if so, “At what level of social distancing do we have to maintain in order to make sure that a program of testing, vigorous contact tracing and isolation is assured?”

Not clear how to do that in the blue states if the red states are still going exponential.  

Also, I would like to hear a lot of wisdom about how we arrange and conduct an election during this mess.

I found Meyers' talks from the Fall which preceded (presaged?) this and thought you had just linked those!  I'm glad to see our "big siblings on the hill" are on this with full attention.

Did anyone else watch this 2 hour presentation?  I'm working my way through it now in the background.

I mentioned this on the close of Virtual Friam today:
  https://santafe.edu/news-center/news/after-first-wave-virtual-workshop-covid-19-pandemic 

The first wave of COVID-19 is well underway, and social distancing will hopefully bend the curve downward (after far too high a price is paid). But what comes next? Under what circumstances and in what way can we lift quarantine? On March 31, five speakers from epidemiology and economics discussed strategies for both public health and economic recovery and answered questions from the SFI community. This was the first of multiple “lightning workshops” that will be convened to address this crisis. 

Speakers: Lauren Ancel Meyers, Integrative Biology, University of Texas, Austin; SFI Sara Del Valle, Los Alamos National Laboratory Caroline Buckee, T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Harvard Rajiv Sethi, Economics, Barnard College, Columbia University; SFI Glen Weyl, Microsoft and RadicalxChange Foundation
