How it started. In Tennessee.
How it's going. In Tennessee.

Glenn's justification for not supporting masks?

A WSJ op Ed by Mark Makary and Cody Meissner.

Who?

Mark Makary...retweeted a RETRACTED kids' mask study on CO2 build up.


And also Makary who is just consistently, incredibly wrong so many times that he has a entire 🧵of 31 tweets on his bad calls.


Cody Meissner. Where do we know that name from?

Oh, right! Another DeSantis roundtable to defend pushing back against masks.

news4jax.com/news/florida/2…

Meissner's contribution? Some scintillating brandishing of data?

No. He calls it virtue signaling.
So, he calls wearing masks a name, and relies on his authority to try to sell his point.

Is he an authority on aerosols and aerosol transmission of respiratory diseases?

No. Those scientists universally support mask wearing.
Masks do work, @GlennJacobsTN, and #BetterMasks4All work better.

But let me put this in a way that will stop you from ever replying.

3M makes masks which are advertised to stop viruses.

If they did not do that, why haven't they been sued out of business?
Kids masks...a couple of resources:


A great resource!
Tennessee update with antimaskin' @GlennJacobsTN.

A mega thread on the ultimate DIY air filter known as the Corsi/Rosenthal Box (@CorsIAQ/ @JimRosenthal4).

Take it into work. Donate a couple to your school classroom if they'll let you.

Do portable air cleaners (aka purifiers aka filters) work to remove aerosols that carry SARS-COV-2 from the air?

Yes.

Does this specific solution? Yes.

At least as good as a $900 HEPA filter.

And this is with MERV 11 filters. The one you will make will have MERV 13 filters, so should be better.

Results below, you'll see they are for 5 microns or below - great! Image

Florida's on fire with CoVid.

And DeSantis uses his Harvard education to DOUBLE-DOWN and call the Great Barrington Declaration author Jay "No Mask" Bhattacharyra?
Below is him whinging on about no randomized evidence for masks.

Never mind that it's incredibly unethical to run a true RCT in the middle of a pandemic.

And 3M would be sued out of existence if masks did not work, since they advertise that they work news4jax.com/news/florida/2…
Where else do we know Bhattacharyra from?

India. Proclaiming herd immunity. January 11th, 2021.

And we know what happened after that.

In today's @WHO's Executive Session of #CoVidIsAirborne,
we have Dr. Nouri (the RT above) to discuss a short thread on 85% CoVid viral load coming from >5 micron aerosols.

Which matches nicely with Lednicky et al (2021) actually culturing CoVid from .25 -.5 micron samples.
ijidonline.com/article/S1201-…

And those aerosols can remain infectious for at least 16 hours - pre-Delta:

Do you want to kill public trust in public health?

This is how you do it.

Folks, I was vaguely alarmed by the breakthrough rates. Now, I am acutely alarmed.
The @WHCOVIDResponse leader sends out a random graph with no link to the source. Antivaxxer 101.

Anyway, he's for vaccines...but still, you HAVE to be a straight shooter to be advocating in public health.

I found the source:
kff.org/policy-watch/c…

This is crap. Here's why.
Half of the states (25) report on breakthroughs. But only 15 regularly update.

But all 25 are included in the data.

If I was @benwakana46, this is what I would do:

1. Mask-hatten Project to deliver N100 elastomeric masks to every man, woman, and child in the USA like the British did in WWII. Use the DPA to get this done.

2. School-hatten Project to put good quality portable HEPA filters
every single classroom. Lunch tents outside every school. Be creative.

3. PublicVent-hatten - portable HEPA filters in every public facility.

4. Truth-hatten
4a. saturate the airways with actual footage of ICU's. Interviews with nurses. Show the damn truth.
Show people getting intubated. Show them dying in their own mucus - only with full written consent, of course.

@BernieDogs4 and I were just discussing Mr. Wakana's behavior yesterday.

I do believe the "senior Biden" staffer might be him.

You decide.
