Do I still need to wipe off my groceries?
Infection and Spread Staying Safe Uncertainty and Misinformation
Malia Jones, PhD MPH
A: Good news: you can stop wiping your groceries down with bleach. While you’re at it, you can stop quarantining your mail and Amazon boxes. As it turns out, you’re much more likely to fall ill from inhaling something that came straight out of the mouth or nose of the person standing next to you Read more…
Can I get RE-infected with COVID-19?
Biology/Immunity Infection and Spread
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: While we can’t say it is *impossible,* current scientific consensus is that re-infection is *unlikely.* There are various stories from doctors and patients alike making the rounds about individuals testing positive for COVID-19, perhaps having a mild case and recovering, and then a couple of months later falling ill and testing positive for COVID-19 Read more…
What protective gear do I REALLY need?
Masks Staying Safe
Lindsey Leininger, PhD MA
A: Masks? CHECK. Gloves? Probably not. Goggles and/or face shields? More complicated. This week Team Nerdy Girls has received many questions about protective gear for everyday living – and have been steadfastly sourcing good information on the topic. We’re happy to share that Consumer Reports has recently written a terrific guide about “gearing up” for Read more…

Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: Thankfully, NO! We’ll admit the Nerdy Girls had not even contemplated this SCARY prospect before an astute follower question, and it turns out you all aren’t the only ones to wonder. While infectious disease experts downplayed the risk since the virus is not present in significant infectious quantities in blood (as opposed to those Read more…

Hi Awesome Nerds! As a “booster” to our recent post on vaccine developments, we want to share with you all an amazing 8-minute video on “Immunology 101” made by Prof. Akiko Iwasaki, Professor of Immunobiology at Yale School of Medicine.

VACCINE NEWS UPDATE!
Vaccines
Lindsey Leininger, PhD MA
TL;DR: Our well-diversified “stock portfolio” of vaccine candidates is demonstrating strong first-quarter returns. Still too early to predict annual fund performance. More information: A partnership between Oxford and AstraZeneca released data last week indicating that their vaccine candidate is SAFE and SPARKED AN IMMUNE RESPONSE in trial participants. Another team from the Chinese biotech CanSino Read more…
How might we use information from studies of Covid-19 outbreaks in nursing homes and summer camps to inform the reopening of schools?
Families/Kids Infection and Spread School Staying Safe
Ashley Ritter, APRN, PhD
A: Let’s consider nursing homes and summer camps. While these environments are different from schools for a host of reasons, the knowledge gained from these settings does inform the critical decisions being made about educating children in the fall. A recent study of Covid-19 spread in nursing homes led by Dr. Elizabeth White found that Read more…
What do you make of the recent news that 1 in 3 kids in Florida tested positive for COVID-19?
Data and Metrics Data Literacy Infection and Spread
Malia Jones, PhD MPH
A: Let’s be sure we know what these numbers are telling us, and what they are not. The Florida Sun Sentinel recently reported that “Nearly one-in-three children tested for the new coronavirus in Florida has been positive.” Specifically, that’s 17,000 total positive tests among children. What’s more, 4 Florida children have died of COVID-19. What Read more…
Can I wear a Face Shield by itself?
Masks Staying Safe
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: NOT RECOMMENDED. As more businesses open up, we’re aware of reports of employees wearing ONLY Face Shields/Visors for protection (for example many hairdressers in the UK). This approach is NOT recommended. While face shields provide some additional protection to the wearer, especially for the eyes, they should be used as a complement to face Read more…

Dang it’s hot. Is it unsafe to spend time in places with air conditioning?
Socializing Staying Safe
Lauren Hale, PhD MA
A. It’s all about air flow! Most air conditioner systems primarily recirculate indoor air without introducing that much air from the outside. Unfortunately, if viral particles are already inside the air-conditioned space, the particles continue to be recirculated, potentially infecting others. One of the early case studies about air conditioning investigated an air-conditioned windowless restaurant Read more…

Geeta Menon and Ellie Kyung articulate in a recent Harvard Business Review article, it’s natural to Read more…
