The unmitigated airborne spread of airborne viruses like COVID-19, RSV, & influenza is causing children to get ill en masse

ON PICUs are preventably crashing with screaming children gasping for air

ā€œIt was secondary bacterial pneumoniaā€”not the influenza virus by itselfā€”that killed most of the millions who perished in the 1918 flu pandemicā€¦
ā€¦which suggests that current pandemic preparations should include stockpiling of antibiotics & bacterial vaccines, influenza researchers reported this week.ā€

ā€œIs COVID-19 Dysregulating Our Immune Systems? The Agenda, 14/11/22ā€



29:00 H/T @FurnessColin

ā€œThere is one logical thing to point out here. A virus has 2 strategies, broadly speaking, in terms of being successfulā€¦
ā€¦ & I think we can agree that #C19 is a pretty successful virus. It can mutate to change its appearance to avoid the immune system and we know that #C19 does that so does flu, every successful virus seems to be able to do that, or mostā€¦
ā€¦ but it can also attack the immune system as another legitimate strategy, so to say that #C19 is not causing immune harm is to say that somehow itā€™s become this amazingly effective virus by only really using one of the two strategies availableā€

ā€œThere are those arguing that this spike is due to an ā€œimmunity deficitā€ā€“that children are getting sick now b/c they were deprived of infections during lockdowns & school closingsā€¦
ā€¦Letā€™s be clear: that theory is made-up nonsense, perpetuated by the same people who opposed #C19 mitigation measuresā€¦ā€

Dear ON,

Stop waiting for those who are behaving the way they are with #IStandWithCUPE šŸ˜· to tell you to put #Masks back on to prevent airborne spread of airborne viruses.

I didn't think I'd spend my Easter morning educating hospital personnel about #AirborneTransmission but that's what happened. Here's a summary of the crack-of-dawn šŸ’© show at a hospital.

/1
Approached screener. I was told to put on sloppy mask. Said I will put over #n95. Not asked any screening Qs. Noticed her mask only covering mouth. I said, "Your mask has slipped down." She points to the plexiglass. I proceed to advise her that #COVIDisAirborne.

2/
I mean there is literally only one other guy that I can see, but aren't they told IT'S IN THE AIR?

I split, go to my destination, & an admin appears MASKLESS. She proceeds to put on a mask under her chin, then asks me questions, unfazed. WTAF.

I recently spoke with Jon Azpiri @cbcnewsbc about issues with school/classroom air quality in BC. His story is great, but given space constraints some of the finer detail wouldn't fit. I'll fill you in on those details with this šŸ§µ!
/1

cbc.ca/news/canada/brā€¦
First a brief history. The BC govt put some money into ventilation improvements for schools, reportedly over $100M. Last summer I read in a local paper about my kid's school district (SD43) receiving about $2M. As my daughter was returning in Sept, I was curious what was done.
/2
I contacted the District facilities director and asked for details in Aug, he was very helpful and answered all my q's. The district hired an HVAC consultant to review the schools and recommend upgrades. Turns out our school, Walton Elem., has a very simple inexpensive system.

As a parent and a citizen, I am very alarmed by what is happening in Ontario.
Our CMOH has sanctioned the re-opening of schools during a time when they are less safe than ever.
I thought the CMOH was there to protect us from harm, to operate within the highest integrity,
upholding the ethics of their profession at all times, irrespective of political opinion or persuasion.
I was naĆÆve.

But how is 1 public health officer allowed to operate without any checks and balances? Oh wait ā€“ there are local checks and balances, but they are not being exercised at present.

This article, Written by Howard Levitt, the best known and most widely quoted authority on employment law in Canada, is a MUST READ.
financialpost.com/fp-work/insureā€¦
ā€œInsurance companies look for any way they can to deny or cut short a claim: that is how they make money. In the case of COVID-related disability claims, insurers are frequently denying claims due to insufficient medical evidence, for example, the lack of a positive COVID-19 test
Levitt: ā€œAccording to the Ontario COVID-19 Science Advisory Table, roughly 10 per cent of those who become infected with the virus become long-haulers.ā€

To the experts insisting ā€œN95s are useless if not fit-testedā€

Have you ever tried to fit test a ā€œwell-fit surgical maskā€ or ā€œ3 layered well-fit cloth maskā€?

TLDR they are inferior.

A brief case series and šŸ§µ

1/15
There are two type of fit tests, 1) quantitative fit testing - a portacount machine measures the concentration of aerosol outside the mask versus inside the mask and 2) qualitative fit testing - a potent bitter or sweet aerosolized solution is inhaled under a hood

2/15
I underwent quantitative fit testing on a surgical mask, suboptimally fit KN95 and well fit CN99 (FFP3). The results were intuitive. The surgical mask, while still offering some protection, performed the worst.

Meanwhileā€¦school children, their families, essential workers (including my CA survivor teacher friend) are being forced to pay $40/test out of their pockets for the same luxury. This raging pandemic is being inflamed by our corrupt, incompetent, negligent government 2/

Q12: Outdoors safe? If you can smell someone who is smoking, you are too close to remove your mask. #EnviroHealthMatters #N95s4all
Depends on activity on distance outdoors stay apart. Stay upwind. Continuity from fluid mechanics is important.
Q13: If masks in a hallway, or elevator. @linseymarr says depends on ventilation. Still #WearAMask in a hallway with 10 people. #envirohealthmatters Relatively low risk from elevators.
