For those of you that have asked me why I am convinced that cryptic lineages are coming from people, I can finally point to a pre-print with @dho and many fantastic collaborators in the UWisc and Wisc Public Health.

Our paper with @DrJDennehy @RoseKantor @dho describing the first 9 cryptic lineages of SARS-CoV-2 identified from wastewater (from 3 states) is now online.

Air surveillance is a scalable and cost-effective alternative to testing, especially in high-risk areas of indoor congregation. Our partners @dho, @MitchellRamuta, and @slo_wis are doing impressive work in preparing us for living with #Covid19.

The message from Israel is clear: #Covid19 booster shots should be standard. A third dose of the vaccine provides significant protection, but that should not mean those who are unvaccinated go without, by @dho theguardian.com/commentisfre… via @guardian #vaccination

What a great talk from @dho to kick off our 22nd Annual #HTCondor Week! It was great to have a deeper understanding of how #highthroughputcomputing can contribute to such great work in #COVID19research by expediting the process of SARS-CoV-2 variant sequencing. @HTCondor @dho_lab

This was a highly collaborative project. 🙏 Many thanks to @wcassias, @KatiaKoelle, @dho, @trvrb, and @tcfriedrich. Incredible leadership and mentorship from start to finish on this project from @LouiseHMoncla. And, of course, my partner in crime/science, @GageKMoreno. 2/12

Today, @SenatorBaldwin joined @BeckyBlank and researchers @tcfriedrich, @dho, @KATarinambraun, @GageKMoreno and others to discuss #UWMadison efforts to sequence variants and study transmission of the virus that causes #covid19.

BREAKING: Wisconsin leads the nation in getting available shots in arms, and today we’re announcing everyone 16 and older will be eligible to receive a #COVID19 vaccine starting next week.

Over 5% of Dane County's positive COVID tests have been sequenced. This is how we find variants of concern soon after they arrive in our community. Learn more here: bit.ly/2ONJOVE. Thanks to @dho and his son Eli!

That time, a year ago today, we gathered in a bar (remember that!?) for #ScienceonTapMadison to have @dho and Shelby O’Connor answer all our questions about the “new coronavirus.”

The U.S. lags far behind other countries in ability to sequence viral samples. ASM & partners endorse the Tracking #COVID19 Variants Act which provides critical funding for @CDC_AMD and thank @RepBera @SenatorBaldwin & @RepScottPeters for their leadership. skyw.io/aOhUou

Why are some sequencing centers sitting idle as the 'sequencing superpower' US falls behind in #COVID19 genome surveillance?
Money, mostly.

Preprint 🧵Using viral sequencing + some epi data, we show that a majority #SARSCoV2 infections in healthcare workers at our institution occur in the community and can only rarely be traced to a #COVID19 patient source. @GageKMoreno @dho @tcfriedrich 1/12 medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
