1/8 - “There is overwhelming evidence that inhalation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (#SARSCoV2) represents a major transmission route for coronavirus disease 2019 (#COVID19) science.sciencemag.org/content/370/65…
2/8 - “We must clarify the terminology to distinguish between aerosols and droplets using a size threshold of 100 µm, not the historical 5 µm. This size more effectively separates their aerodynamic behavior, ability to be inhaled, and efficacy of interventions.”
3/8 - “Viruses in droplets (larger than 100 µm) typically fall to the ground in seconds within 2 m of the source and can be sprayed like tiny cannonballs onto nearby individuals. Because of their limited travel range, physical distancing reduces exposure to these droplets.”
1/6. The USA, Oct. 17 to 23 - Will be experiencing a rise in its #COVID19 epidemic activity at high levels, with high-medium mortality for 7 more days.

1/5 - Un changement de stratégie de recherche des contacts s’impose en urgence. À Genève on ne trace les contacts jusqu’à maximum 48h avant les premiers symptômes (“forward tracing”recherche prospective des contacts). Mais ce n’est pas assez performant de faire ainsi...
2/5 - ...Il faut plutôt rechercher en priorité dans les 12-14 derniers jours quels ont pu être le ou les contact(s) contaminant(s) et s’arrêter d’abord sur celui (ou ceux) qui aurai(en)t pu être à l’origine d’une super-propagation (megaclusters). Et se focaliser sur ceux-là...
