“99% of what comes out of your butt when you fart is completely odorless. It’s the 1% that causes the trouble—primarily hydrogen sulfide” says @tweetsauce. ➡️But what else is silent but dangerous? Coronavirus aerosols, say aerosol experts—and underwear is cloth.🧵#COVIDisAirborne

2) Bathroom airborne transmission confirmed. Whether breathing, toilet plume, or fecal aerosols doesn’t matter—it stayed in air for 40 minutes before infecting next person.
@AliNouriPhD & I have been warning about fecal aerosols, bathroom, & septic ventilation for long time—

3) Many past examples of fecal aerosol transmission of the #SARSCoV2 virus - such as in large high rise buildings that share toilet drainage pipes between different apartments / condo units. Yes the graphic is quite graphic, but that’s why photos worth 1000 words…

4) We also know feces can carry active coronavirus that causes #COVID19. Fauci says so, as well as pediatric studies that show the virus living in intestines of children for over a month. Often without symptoms.

5) Some of the risk in high rise buildings stems from U traps (that normally block septic gas entry) drying out, thereby allowing fecal aerosol entry into another unit of same building. This has happened many times from Hong Kong to other places with shared high rise septic pipes

6) different families that were complete strangers to each other and had no contract, but lived vertically of each other sharing same sewer pipe have cross infected each other with #COVID19 this way

7) “In the bathroom, patients usually did not wear masks; therefore, airborne SARS-CoV-2 may come from patients' breath or **the aerosolization of the virus-laden aerosol from feces** 👀 ” says this study

8) just like during the old SARS high rise outbreak in HK in 2003, this fecal aerosol outbreak AGAIN happened in Feb 2020 during Hong Kong’s first wave, in another HK high rise. History repeats. We don’t learn from the past until shit hits the high rise septic pipe. An expert 👇

9) welp, this can’t be good.
