Dr. Conly getting to be more famous for his anti-masker stance than all of his good work in the past?

Is he heading down the sad road of Michael Levitt?

I hope not.

But - even Dubai is calling him out.

gulfnews.com/special-report…
Maybe calling him out is not the right phrase. "Taking him to the woodshed" is a phrase that's more applicable.

Here Conly is trotting out the classic antimasker arguments: acne, CO2, etc. And the article calls him out for being absurd.

Which it is - I've pointed these
out personally.


The article actually started to address that question as well - but is missing that the question and answer.

In the process of reaching out to them to get it corrected and gathering resources for them, I discovered THE Paul Alexander of
the Trump Administration, who pushed for herd immunity as documented here: politico.com/news/2020/12/1…

is now working for the the Koch-funded AIER.

Purveyors of fine science like this antimask piece where Alexander, like Conly, cites 'the harms' of CO2.
Although, ironically, he provides more sources than the scientist who is the @WHO's lead scientist on CoVid transmission.

Anyway - this is not a good look for Conly OR the @WHO.

Always a great study when tweeted out by Dr. Noakes - let's dive in.

✅2 cases of transmission from bus drivers to passengers up to more than 9 feet/ 3 meters.
✅Genomic confirmation
✅Airflow traced - please see Dr. Noakes original thread for commentary on the method used. Image
Limitations:
📌Facemask compliance unsure
📌Fomite possible. Not likely
📌Community transmission possible - but not likely Image
Two trips and two separate van drivers involved.

Both trips - windows closed, ventilation NOT on recirculate, heaters on medium fan.

First trip - 4 patients on 2-hour trips to and from the hospital on December 2, 2020. Driver tested +positive on December 3, 2020.

This. This is why I push ever harder on #CoVidIsAirborne, and against Conly and Heneghan.

If we let impossible standards to be ramrodded down our throat by a @WHO who has hired an antimasker to run an airborne transmission, then we are lost.
Heneghan is clearly antimask. The corollary to that is to think that CoVid is NOT airborne.

Conly is clearly conflicted without EVER declaring that he's getting paid to push handwashing.
That little nugget is not in any of the competing interest statements on any of the studies he is working with Heneghan on.

He also didn't list it in the debate.

The man getting paid by @WHO leading the transmission reviews of CoVid, folks.

Tweeting out an article that argues that Kulldorff, Heneghan, and Jefferson are being censored because their views are not allowed to course freely on Twitter or Facebook.
Such silliness. These are private companies.

We all agree to their terms and conditions when we sign up.

BTW - here's his article - you'll noticed it's published?

Literally, one google away.

It's not like there aren't a million other places like Parler or AIER for Heneghan to voice his opinion.

Here's Paul Alexander, The Not Nice Canadian, who urged herd immunity upon us through Trump, citing Heneghan's study in a typical antimasker piece.

The logic that aerosols produced by a nebullizer aren't indicative of aerosol transmission was also used by Dr. Conly, the @WHO's lead on the transmission committee during the discussion of #CovidIsAirborne.



The study being referenced is a preprint, but
after reviewing it, I see no obvious gotchas on why it won't go forward.

Title "Aerosol Exposure of Cynomolgus Macaques to SARS-CoV-2 Results in More Severe Pathology than Existing Models"

While ferrets are typically the gold standard for respiratory studies, macaques are good
because their lungs and respiratory system are up and down, as opposed to horizontal like a ferret's.

Must read study on the 6 feet rule and the 5 microns - some eye candy to get you to read it.

(Come for the candy, stay for the healthy veggies).

Nodes in peach are 3 foot rule
Nodes in blue are 6 feet.
Nodes in red are variable.
Arrows show older cited in newer.
Full explanation.
Dark purple outline - mention of 5 micron cut-off
Purple - airborne = particles that remain suspended in the air.
Light Green - "particles that can be inhaled"
Dark Green - "particles that are infectious".
A dotted line indicates the older source is cited in order to disagree.
