Fiona Bruce:
"I`m a Doctor in Melbourne vaccinations alone are not going to be enough"

"we need input from occupational hygienists, aerosol experts and ventilation engineers"

"why is there not national guidance which accepts the reality that airborne transmission is an important mode of spread for this virus and adopts the precautionary principle to protect workers from the airborne spread of this virus with fit tested n95 masks and other measures."

Tony Blakely @TonyBlakely_PI

"you cannot deny that aerosol transmission is happening"

Dr Michelle Ananda-Rajah

"There's no debate"

"There has been clear and compelling evidence from the start of this pandemic. The Chinese from the get-go basically acknowledged this was aerosol transmission and it was based on their own experience with SARS."

"We're 14 months into this and we've had real lack of movement on acknowledging the fundamentals of disease transmission."

"If you don't acknowledge that this is spread through the air, through a mixture of droplets as well as aerosols"

"its a continuum you know you can't really slice where a droplet, what a droplet is and what an aerosol is. If you can't acknowledge it, you can't prevent it."

"First 6 months of last year"
"surgical masks"
"healthcare workers started falling like flies"
"it took hundreds and hundreds healthcare workers to get infected for hospitals to then introduce n95 respirators."

*Thank you Fiona Bruce

There will no doubt be many in your debt for asking the right questions at the right time.

*Dr Michelle Ananda-Rajah

Thank you for your bravery
Thank you for your professionalism
Thank you for your astute eloquence
Thank you for your compassion

Thank you for speaking on behalf of so many who lack the means

Thank you

There appears to be a glimmer hope after all.

ALL Governments need to Acknowlege, then move to enhance protection for their populations and workers.

"Airborne mitigation"

Initial focus for Doctors, Nurses, Teachers, Police ...
"any" frontline Keyworkers.
Hospitals, Schools (Adults and Children), Supermarkets, Warehouses,

...there is no end to this list until the pandemic ends.

#HumanRights

Article 2 of the Human Rights Act protects your right to life.

"It also means the Government should take appropriate measures to safeguard life by making laws to protect you and, in some circumstances, by taking steps to protect you if your life is at risk."

"Public authorities should also consider your right to life when making decisions that might put you in danger or that affect your life expectancy."
