Profs. Greely, Hennessy, Chen MD, Califf MD, and All,

Thanks to Stanford Professor Jonathan Chen MD (and computer scientist) for sharing this video with an interview with UMN Prof of Public Health Michael Osterholm: 

"Rich discussion on #COVID19 with @mtoster with analogies on level of preparedness for public health vs. defense (and biggest vulnerabilities are likely supply chains that depend on China...)"


And in a "pan"-demic interpretive vein, thanks, too, to Stanford Law Prof. Greely for sharing this WHO 'pandemic' Tweet:

(where Pan could refer to the genus 'Pan' as in Pan Troglodyte or Pan Paniscus ... )

And I could interpret this recent Tweet by Stanford Law Professor Hank Greely, with his focus on biosciences, and as an (actual<>virtual, physical<>digital) ethnographer of Harbin Hot Springs in the following ways:

"I apologize (ish) for flooding my followers w/retweets. There's just SO MUCH interesting stuff going on. This would be a wonderfully fascinating time..if it weren't real."

...

"I apologize (ish)"
- is 'ish' ishvara aka Bob Hartley, founder of Harbin Hot Springs aka Heart Consciousness Church (HCC), and who is also a Harvard alumnus, with echoes of neo-conservative democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg regarding in a debate publicly apologizing for as mayor his outrageous racist stop and frisk policies toward black men in NYC ...

... "for flooding my followers w/retweets"
- 'flooding' Stanford itself with / re birds (women, who might be familiar with Harbin's alternative culture?? ... and who are open with their sexuality as well?)

... "There's just SO MUCH interesting stuff going on."
- so much money at Stanford? where going on could be 'going down,' in a '60s sense, that is 'happening' ...  +

... "This would be a wonderfully fascinating time..if it weren't real."
- is this coronavirus time (since Prof Hank Greely is posting much about coronavirus) real? (and what's 'real' in California, and regarding the media can often be fluid and open to interpretation at times, and a 'trip' even)


and partly because I know slightly Stanford alum Phil Jelley, who graduated from Stanford in the '50s, as an undergraduate and from Stanford Law, and who is a Harbin Hot Springs' lands' lawyer ... having met Phil Jelley, and his wife, at a Stanford Alumni weekend in October 2017 in front of the Stanford bookstore (and possibly thanks to Stanford Law Professor Hank Greely ... ?and because of Google Maps / or Stanford video cameras even? - who knows?).
(have blogged about this here - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/03/rabies-dramatic-it-seems-1-as-if-some.html and there's a picture of Phil Jelley, his wife and myself at Stanford here -

"[A]s scholars have increasingly argued, fieldwork and writing are never really things we do alone—we just do not always openly acknowledge the various voices and support that go into our processes of data collection and knowledge production."
