Dr. Seheult, the sign of a great teacher is the ability to disseminate highly complex information to mere mortals without our brains exploding. Just subscribed today 😷✊

Watching from Italy. You’re doing an amazing job to inform people like me who have no science or medical background and helping make all the information digestible. You’re so clear to understand!

Splendid. I'm just some psychologist in the woods with a decent, basic ability to read scientific and medical literature outside my field, but I am finding that not only am I following these updates, I am growing my abilities to keep going deeper. If I had to stay home and veg out, this is being a huge unforeseen benefit. I'm sure many are grateful for this professional and humanitarian service you're contributing here.

Him and people like him, in any field of work, are the best hope we have to make it as a species.
The noblest of mind and bravest of heart.
Thank you on behalf of all that would if they knew you.

[joannalalicata]

Ive been following for about a month now and just want to say WOWWWW. I soooo appreciate you! Not only do you give it to us STRAIGHT but seems like you got the whole media voice recoding thing down too and AT SUCH A BUSY TIME in healthcare! Im in school for nursing and this info in just priceless. You dont learn this stuff in class! It’s amazing how the makeup of the virus is studied to determine which meds will possibly work.

[GoodnightJLH]

It’s a shame that the Famotidine study doesn’t have an arm of Famotidine alone without hydroxychloroquine.

[astrocatcity]

Thank you so much for keeping us well informed - it definitely helps with the anxiety, knowing we (you) are getting closer and closer to figuring out how to treat this new disease.
