DeAunne Denmark, MD, PhD: "To date, the FDA has granted EUA for only these 4 companies: Cellex, Ortho Clinical Diagnostics, Chembio Diagnostic Systems and the Mount Sinai Laboratory. Really looking forward to the validation and head-to-head comparison data promised here from the FDA, Chan Zuckerberg (supposedly this week?), and others. That should be telling... "

Download the Mydatahelps app -- "When your heart beats faster than usual, it can mean that you're coming down with a cold, flu, coronavirus, or other viral infection. That's the conclusion of recent medical research. So wearable devices that measure your resting heart rate-made by Apple, Fitbit, Garmin, and others-might help scientists spot viral outbreaks, and also give you more insight into your own health. At Scripps Research, we've designed DETECT (Digital Engagement & Tracking for Early Control & Treatment), a study that will monitor your heart rate and allow you to record symptoms like fever or coughing."

"How Will Coronavirus Patients Flow through Health Services? Many of you have called asking to be tested for Coronavirus. Given recent testing challenges, the CDC and County have provided physicians with a simple coronavirus patient testing & care health services flowchart. As you can see, if symptoms are mild, testing is not indicated at this time. It is my hope that we will soon be able to test everyone! The 211 number mentioned below is a San Diego County information line that helps people efficiently access appropriate services, and provides vital data and trend information. The website for 211 is https://211sandiego.org/"

This overview article mentions Ben Smarr's work along with Eric Topol's research and a newly launched project from Stanford.

This is an on-demand webinar. "Statistical errors are all too common in medical literature, and contribute to the reproducibility crisis currently plaguing science. Fortunately, you don't need a degree in statistics to catch these errors. While some errors are impossible to spot without access to the underlying dataset, many are detectable just by reviewing the information available in the paper. In many cases nothing more than common sense and simple arithmetic is required. In addition, there is an ever-increasing number of free, easy-to-use online statistical tools that facilitate error detection."

"The Microsetta Initiative and its subsidiaries, including the American Gut Project, have pivoted to COVID-19 research, and are revising our kits to support this effort. We are working as hard as we can, but please be patient as these changes have required a complete overhaul of our infrastructure. Please check back soon: we are setting up a form to gather information about people who are interested in receiving a kit when they are ready."

Source: LA Times 4/8/2020 As of Tuesday, California said it had results for 143,172 tests - or 362 per 100,000 people. That's a sharp increase from two weeks ago when just 39 of every 100,000 residents had been tested. Yet for all its deep sources of innovation, the state is behind the national average of 596 tests per 100,000, according to the COVID Tracking Project. In New York, which has far more people hospitalized with severe symptoms, testing has reached 1,748 of every 100,000.

Dr. Michael Kurisu D.O. "This is from a former student at CalIt2 that has a GREAT site connecting people. It has all great interactive data coming in from national sites about COVID Cases. As it says on top... Made with love by first-generation Chinese Americans.. Also has a 'matching' program for hospital that need PPEs and quantity of them AND.. has a matching program for grocery store chains and what they have in stock etc... AND has a 'job posting' arena trying to get people matched up where jobs are available. AWESOME citizen-run project by computer programmers and students… Why oh WHY is our government not running something like this??
