As a worker advocate, I’ve been raising concerns for months about research showing that COVID-19 is airborne &!can travel MUCH farther than 2m in indoor environments. UCPers dismissed my concerns. I won’t allow them to dismiss me now. ⁦#AbLeg #abpoli washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/09…

Here’s an renowned expert emphasizing the importance of the CDC’s new guidance on aerosols.

Here’s another expert who specializes in aerosols and safety in indoor environments.

I’ll be writing a letter to @CMOH_Alberta today demanding that she reassess Alberta’s COVID guidance for schools and workplaces in light of the CDC’s new guidance. It’s time for @jkenney, @AdrianaLaGrange and @JasonCoppingAB to do their jobs and stop justifying half measures.

This is what I said when I first read the CDC’s new guidance last night.

I urge Alberta media to hold Hinshaw and Kenney’s feet to the fire in this one. They have both repeatedly said that COVID-19 does NOT spread in this fashion. Don’t let them re-write history or say this doesn’t really change things.
