“There is one logical thing to point out here. A virus has 2 strategies, broadly speaking, in terms of being successful…
… & 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 most…
… 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 it’s become this amazingly effective virus by only really using one of the two strategies available”

“There are those arguing that this spike is due to an “immunity deficit”–that children are getting sick now b/c they were deprived of infections during lockdowns & school closings…
…Let’s be clear: that theory is made-up nonsense, perpetuated by the same people who opposed #C19 mitigation measures…”

If you are talking immunity debt, at this stage,
that tells me
you are either not reading on #LongCovid,
10,000+ studies (H/T @elisaperego78 )

Dear ON,
Stop waiting for those who are behaving the way they are with #IStandWithCUPE 😷 to tell you to put #Masks back on to prevent airborne spread of airborne viruses.
A non-exhaustive🧵 of their behaviour so far:

A reminder: Covid protections have featured nowhere in the bargaining positions of either CUPE or the Government of Ontario.
You should be wondering why.

Anyone who claims to care about students - and doesn’t protect them from potentially disabling illness - is full of it.
And if you have the temerity to demand a 55% pay increase over four years - or throttle labour rights with the notwithstanding clause - and you somehow neglect not disabling my child, you can fuck off repeatedly.

“…the province is not doing much to educate the public about #LongCovid. She cited a recent study showing that #LongCovid can affect 1 in 4 children”
PHO = approx 50% = #LongCovid

Focusing on only one PH measure would be an unforced error

1) Rapid tests. Identify, in 15 min, COVID +ve patients who are capable of spreading the virus
By being able to identify +ve patients quickly they can isolate immediately preventing them from spreading the virus to the community

2) Masks help prevent you from inhaling COVID viral aerosols IF the mask is properly fitted
KN95/N95 masks provide the ideal protection. They form a seal around your mouth and nose
If wearing a surgical mask please make sure you pinch it at your nose so it helps form a seal

Swiss study finds SIX TIMES the cases in poorly ventilated classrooms (those with over 2000 ppm CO₂) compared to better-ventilated ones. #COVIDCO2

More details on the Swiss CO₂ classroom study here: empa.ch/web/s604/covid…
For those school administrators who say “we have a ventilation system, it meets or exceeds ASHRAE standards”—That's not enough. You MUST monitor #COVIDCO2. My daughter's fully ventilated classroom, from her backpack monitor, yesterday vs today:
While #Ventilate2Educate is geared towards schools, we can #Educate2Ventilate with simple directives for small businesses & organizations. Simple low-cost changes can make for an enormous indoor air quality improvement. Low-rise small commercial buildings are everywhere.
These simple ventilation actions and more are described on the CDC's Ventilation in Buildings Page: cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
Idea for a local Business Improvement Area #Educate2Ventilate campaign: Team up with a local HVAC contractor and visit all the storefronts with a CO2 meter to promote simple changes to improve indoor air quality. Add energy efficiency measures too.
