#IShareYourAir gym edition

Yes, it’s possible to go to the gym safely in a pandemic

My youngest daughter goes to a large, multi-room gym …

… at 4am 😯

yes, seriously
She usually gets most of her session alone & will tolerate one other person (usually swaps rooms to avoid them) & automatically leaves if a second person arrives or if she hears a cough or sneeze
She wears her @flo_mask always, yes even if exercising alone b/c someone could have been in before she got there & left their breath behind.

She takes a portable hepa unit with her & uses enovid nasal spray & CPC mouthwash before & after

Update on #IShareYourAir Car Edition

Earlier this week I showed the significant difference between no fan/windows up and 2 windows cracked

Someone reached out and asked me to check on fan settings and I was happy to oblige as it’s fun to experiment 👩‍🔬

🧵 #IShareYourAir the medical edition

Two medical appointments to measure co2 & rebreathed air this week - in the middle of a surge 😬 one good result, one bad
Firstly, specialist appointment in office in St Vincent’s intensive care department.

Before we get to co2 reading, noting that on entry visitors to hospital are offering both trident n95/p2 masks & surgicals - last visit it was only surgicals
My uni age daughter on her own as we judged it too risky for me to accompany her this week. She’s asked to remove her n95 & replace it and asks the receptionist if she can layer it instead. Receptionist confused, insists she wants her to exchange.
