Influential epidemiologists on Twitter — Stay informed on COVID19 directly from top experts

There seems to be more misinformation about COVID19 by the day. We need a better system of deciding who is credible, and, which information to trust. Credibility needs to be based on past performance, not on association with institutions.

There seems to be more misinformation about COVID19 by the day. You could be at danger right now because of false information that you or one of your closed ones believed. There is little you can do to prevent that. The mainstream media have spread misinformation ('it's just a flu') and so did government authorities (lying about the numbers). Not to mention social media, which is full of hoaxes and fake news. It's hard to find information you can trust. This problem is not getting better — it's been getting worse for a long time. The crisis has just made it painfully obvious how dangerous it is. We need a better system of deciding who is credible, and, which information to trust. Credibility needs to be based on past performance, not on association with institutions. This page is a prototype of such a system. We mapped clusters of experts, made the list public and build tools to allow you to use these groups to filter information. This way you get to see what information experts share with other experts. You are also one of the first people to access it — right after the experts, but way before the media or authorities pick it up. This approach offers you both more reliable and more real-time information than relying on traditional media or your average social media stream. We created this list using an algorithm we originally designed for mapping people in Bitcoin & crypto. But it seems to universally applicable. You can read about how it works here: hive.one/algorithm
