As far as I know, the USGS website has data in realtime and doesn't necessarily wait for any kind of human verification. For example, within approximately 15 seconds of the Virginia quake last year, I checked the USGS site and they already had it in their list of recent quakes. For other quakes I've seen reported on Twitter, the USGS site has always had data up at least as soon as the first tweets I've seen.

We can try to get this word out. I believe Gail Neubrugge's grandaughter (?) was severely disabled by a vaccine. Dan Saddler's pretty sharp on this issue as well. This'll be a tough pill for some folks.
