    Where can I find Jennifer’s timings?
    One idea: put a link to them in the show notes.
    Ideally, there would be a time IN the show notes.

    • Of course the timestamps are in the show notes, they have always been. I don’t put them in until Monday morning because that’s when I receive them from Jennifer.

    Thanks for discussing the mutation rates in Ebola. I think it’s important to separate science from scipop which Michael T. Osterholm was manifesting. Private conversations, conjecture, and peer-reviewed science need to be clearly delineated even among experts.
