Big news? A 100-year old treatment may work, a bit, for some patients. May or may not be safe. Science moves slowly – there is still so much we don’t know. What kind of antibodies? Which patients benefit? When in course of illness? What dose? How long? Need science, not politics.

Strangely, a blundered outing here from Trump. He built up this thing, then wandered around lost in his own statement, gave some airtime to Hahn and Azar who thanked the Great Leader, then cut it off after two questions from State TV 1 and State TV 2, and one real question. https://t.co/Mo6PEzENCV

In Mary Trump's secret tapes, president's sister Maryanne calls brother 'stupid,' phony, 'cruel -. “He has no principles. None. None. And his base, I mean my God, if you were a religious person, you want to help people. Not do this.” https://t.co/4U5t0Vlj5m

The Republican National Convention kicks off Monday, and newsrooms have a crucial decision to make: Should they intervene if speakers lie?@BrianStelter spoke with @SaraFischer, @PeterHamby and @AmandaCarpenter about how networks should cover the RNC. https://t.co/AMHWfdFeRD

— Alexis Benveniste (@apbenven) August 23, 2020

From me: Networks need to be prepared to handle the RNC as a major political and medical disinformation event. Trump’s messaging on the rigged election and miracle coronavirus cures are dangerous to our health and democracy. https://t.co/k0fzb1VriJ

UK media *again* telling us today that EU doesn’t understand British political dynamics and Brexit resolve. The very reverse is true. We know only too well, hence we’re not selling out our interests. We know that Brexit outrage is unfathomable and irreconcilable with compromise.
