And here we are for a two-digit edition of our STEMsocial distilled. As a result of an insane week for Hive account@lemouth, this edition is however late. However, here we finally are with the 10th edition of the distilled of the best articles posted within the STEMsocial community. Feel free to read and comment the posts of all featured authors of the week! Note that if you use our app, your comments are eligible for a small upvote from STEMsocial!
Before moving on with the two best posts that have been selected (by Hive account@lemouth) from all the posts found by our curators last week, here are the most supported ones:
With the COVID-19 crisis, we have heard a lot about this mask stories. Should we really wear a mask when we go outside? Is this really useful? Hive account@cyprianj gets featured in the STEMsocial distilled for a second time and addresses this very important topic of the mask, and what should be and should not be done with it. Feel free to read it (and leave a comment).
With such a title, it was impossible to miss this post from Hive account@pearlumie, that discusses a rare phenomenon: double pregnancy. Or in other words, the occurrence of a second conception during pregnancy. On this matter, other animals are probably better than us. Feel free to get to the post to know more.
