“As we have discussed this week, this variant of concern is starting to show up in places where normally it would be less likely, so the Brighton Beach Hotel, that was an outdoor dining setting, well ventilated, you wouldn't expect transmission to occur.” tveeder.com/560/byrange?&f…
“The fact that we’re seeing transmission in some of these casual tier2 exposure sites or even tier3 exposure sites means we have to re-examine those sites. We have to reach out to people in some of those exposure sites and ask them to quarantine rather than just test and isolate”
“REPORTER: Numbers have not exploded, contact tracers yesterday said they are meeting every key benchmark, vaccinations are up, we are hitting record testing levels, Melburnians are doing their bit and numbers have not gone up exponentialally, so what's the concern here”

“1 new community case, associated with the port of Melbourne. This is an individual who lives quite close to Stratton Finance in Port Melbourne, and who appears to have caught the virus through very peripheral, very tangential contact with 1 of the Stratton Finance employees” Image
“This is stranger to stranger transmission. The individuals concerned, it is not 1-2, we now have at least four instances in this cluster of 54, where people who are unknown to each other before, during and after, have clearly transmitted to each other.” Image
“What we're seeing now clearly is people who are brushing past each other in a small shop, they’re going round to a display home, they’re looking at phones in a Telstra shop. This is, relatively speaking, relatively fleeting. They don’t know each others names.” Image

1/4 Something to think about. VIC had an almost identical quarantine leak because of guest doors opening around the same time. This was shared with all states back in Feb. Seems like it was IGNORED and SA repeated the same mistake? Now Victorians are paying the price. Who’s next?
2/4 “we all throw in our views and that's where the contestation of ideas happen”

SA Quarantine Leak Report

“it is highly likely the close timing of doors opening and closing between adjacent rooms was responsible given the clear role of aerosol transmission of this virus”

“However, the adjacent rooms were at the end of a corridor on one floor of the Medi-hotel. There were two occasions on 3 May 2021, when entry doors opened within 30 minutes of each other.”
“For example, on one occasion, Case B opened his room door to collect his meal, then 18 seconds later Case A opened his door to collect his meal.”

NZ Aerosol Transmission Update - Mar 23

Comments on recent CDC report: wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/27…
1/8 NZ Director-General of Health Dr. Bloomfield:“I think over the last month or 2 in particular, probably 3 months, there’s been much more emergent evidence about the importance & the significance of airborne transmission of Coronavirus being a way that people become infected.”
2/8 “And I think if we look at our more recent cases, the role of airborne or aerosolised transmission has been much more likely to have been the cause.”
