Last Friday gave a covid webinar at Texas A&M discussing various issues in the pandemic in which quantitative nuances have confused people, sometimes the pandemic skeptics, and sometimes the national leaders and media, including:
* Length of lockdowns
* Deniers vs. alarmists, vaccine enthusiasts vs. skeptics
* Vaccine efficacy vs. infection/transmission
* Vaccine safety
* Immunity after infection
* Age and Time confounding in the pandemic and Simpson's paradox
* Variants
* Censoring/fact-checking
* The role of statisticians and other biomedical data scientists in the pandemic
