Press Release:

Then, 3 became 8! Bonus -Scott Atlas joined on January 1, 2021! What a way to start the new year!



Backed up (no games now, Abir...)
Image
January 14th! 9 members?! What!?

Would you believe that Karol Sikora joined?! So excited to be there with a Nobel winner!

Is his buddy, Carl Heneghan next!?

web.archive.org/web/2021011413… Image
So close to getting Heneghan! January 26th, the one and only most reputable Scott Jensen!

Kulldorff must be so proud to have Jensen right next to him. It's not like he works for the CDC on vaccines.

Or Jensen is antivax...

Uh oh, trouble in paradise on the same day! Pandata gets called out for being anti-vax.



Backup:


Interesting to note that stance is exactly Jensen's stance.

So, Karol Sikora resigns:
.
By February 25th, Paul Peterson of the Hoover Institute has joined! Yes! Two Hoovers with Scott Atlas!

web.archive.org/web/2021022504… Image
April 19th, 2021. A sad day for all of us who really, really appreciate Pandata19's excellent data analysis.

Michael Levitt leaved it. Sorry - bad pun.

Levitt left. BECAUSE Pandata is anti-vax.


Backup.
April 20th, 2021.

Due to several resignations because Pandata19 is against vaccines, "(t)he role of the Scientific Advisory Board will be subsumed into the organisation."

Misspelling the last word of the existence of the Board.

As an anonymous clean air advocate, I've put a bit of thought into how to present, well, my expertise.

If someone were to say, "How do I know you know what you are talking about? Are you a doctor, or a virologist?"

To which, I would say...."No, but that's a good thing.
/1
I have focused on aerosol and masking science. Because it is those fields that give us the most information on how airborne particles, aerosols, get from Person A to Person B.

My expertise is derived from the great studies of Dr. Lindsay Marr, MacArthur recipient. Dr. Prather,
double National Academy member, Dr Milton, inventor of the Gesundheit, aerosol scientist and medical doctor; Dr Coleman whose group found that duckbill N95s captured 98% of emitted respiratory aerosols, and more excellent individual aerosol scientists.

I am not a fan of nasal sprays to stop The 'Vid, but I respect you having it as a layer in the Swiss cheese package.

But, some people have said they got bloody noses.

While at the ER yesterday, I picked up a pretty good at home technique. Let our $1,000 lay-out
Image
save you money.

Use tongue depressors to make a nose pinch clamp.

Leave it on for 30 minutes. Still a problem? Two sprays of Afrin, and re-apply nose pinch clamp. Wait 30 minutes.

Still a problem? Cotton balls sprayed with Afrin, clamp, 30 minutes

Afrin- in generic form is $3.32 at Walmart.

Also, put a ice compress at the back of the neck, while doing the above.

"Cooling the nape of the neck is said to induce reflex constriction of the mucosal vessels of the nose"

✅ I agree with the authors.

A study demonstrated 100% PERFECT protection against SARS2 w/ readily available KF94s

✅ 181 HCWs
✅ 1 got SARS2 antibodies, but an epi investigation -> the infection happened elsewhere.
😡 The final checkpoint was March 2021. N95s only became freely available 1 month later
/1 FDA: N95 masks, now plentiful, should no longer be reused By MARTHA MENDOZA and JULIET LINDERMAN (Associated Press) April 23, 2021 12:44 p.m. Medical providers may soon return to using one medical N95 mask per patient, a practice that was suspended during the pandemic due to deadly supply shortages
What is described in the tweets
in the USA.

Korean study:
jkms.org/DOIx.php?id=10…

This is in comparison to a Swiss study during the same rough time-frame. A study which did NOT show the same excellent results, but dismal results. Why?

The Swiss had the same sort of fit testing,

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35123572/ Results: We enrolled 3259 participants from nine healthcare institutions, whereof 716 (22%) preferentially used FFP2. Among these, 81/716 (11%) reported a SARS-CoV-2-positive swab, compared to 352/2543 (14%) surgical mask users; seroconversion was documented in 85/656 (13%) FFP2 and 426/2255 (19%) surgical mask users. Adjusted for baseline characteristics, COVID-19 exposure, and risk behaviour, FFP2 use was non-significantly associated with decreased risk for SARS-CoV-2-positive swab (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.8, 95% CI 0.6-1.0) and seroconversion (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.7, 95% CI ...
PPE monitoring.

What was the big difference?

Are N95s/FFP2s inferior to KF94s?

No, it was supply - and other reasons.

@tomhanks has just been savaged by people screaming masks don't work.

All hospitals have fiduciary responsibilities to not waste money.

Here is a light sampling of hospitals mandating masks because they work.

Proving that not only do masks work, but mask mandates work.

Thread of debunking the myth that "babies should not be masked."

A baby uninfected is better than a baby infected.

If you oppose masking babies, you are immediately for infecting babies.

Let's get to it. A most excellent instruction page on how to mask babies. Suck it antimaskers.
This solves an equity problem.

Not everyone has the money or technical skill to build a baby buggy PAPR.

Just like not everyone has the money to buy an adult PAPR.

Are you for people on SNAP being able to protect their babies? Or not?

Most can rustle up the money to buy some uber cute baby masks!

This is the link from the baby zine.

These need to be fit tested.

Now, let's get into the good stuff. The "OMG Laz has gone too far! We've got him!"

You better bring your A game.

If you are Covid Aware you have probably been avoiding the dentist. Well, the dental studies have come to you.

This edition? #CovidAwareSoReducingDentalVisits - Water flossing (WF) edition.

Or, as I like to think of it, the Gum Salon.

Thread.
Flossing is necessary for those super tight contact points as you see in the above thread, and is great to remove plaque down 1 mm deep in the gum line (gently).

InterDental Brushes are fantastic and go down 2-3 mm into the gum line to remove plaque.

And WFs in general, are, well, amazing!!

They basically go back and forth with InterDental Brushes on which is better as far as being the top of the food chain for overall cleaning of the space between your teeth.

But.

If you have gum recession, you may have this Image
