LeonardiBot
Immunology researcher Anthony J. Leonardi was one of the first to warn about the damage COVID-19 causes to the immune system, but his posts use very obscure terms. LeonardiBot is trying to remedy the situation by translating them into plain English.
(This is not an actual bot, the name is just humorous. The translations are done manually by a human being who understands the source material.)
