I am honored to know Dr Agre, a gentleman and scientist that truly lives a purposeful life. He will always call you by your name @JohnsHopkinsMMI

When he was growing up Peter Agre's mother gave him some advice: do something to help humankind. He decided to go into medicine, beginning his career researching the E. coli variant of cholera that causes traveller’s diarrhoea. His research eventually led him to the Nobel Prize.

Screening for #SARSCoV2 is critical for controlling the #pandemic, but investment determines how to optimize outcomes in mixed-testing landscapes. Screening may be less sensitive, but we miss many more cases by not testing at all! New #COVID paper & shiny app, out to preprint 🧵
