@jvipondmd Dude I've walked through construction sites and never got hit with a brick, so we know paper party hats are protective.
We also asked workers repeatedly, incessantly, almost to the level of harassment, and in the end they admitted they took the party hats off in the break room
/s
@jvipondmd In fact, we looked at April to June 2020 where there was no brick work being done on the construction site, and there were 5500 hours of workers in paper party hats, and yet not one got hit with a brick. I have an email testifying to that, which I wrote myself, as proof /s
@jvipondmd But no, you cannot look at our records, and if you found someone who during that period got hit with a brick, they definitely got hit at home, even though we don't test bricks, and it's kind of weird because construction sites have more bricks and bricklayers than homes.
/s
@jvipondmd And also honestly, we're so surprised that workers are discouraged from doing a BRA I mean, that's totally shocking to us and no you can't look at meeting minutes or our emails or chat logs at all, pfft what would be in there? Discussion of discouraging BRAs? Get outta here./s
@jvipondmd I mean actually get out. I'm not mad why would I be mad? My voice isn't raised, yours is. You're just trespassing, that's all, and we're going to call the cops if you don't leave and stop asking brick-related questions.
What do you even know about bricks?
Troublemaker.

@jvipondmd I could keep going with this and make a joke that hey, providing brick protective helmets means some other side of the construction site takes a financial hit, which means the building we're making has to be smaller, impacting quality of life of the building ...
@jvipondmd ... but this is something they can't admit publically so we'll only see this come out in the internal chats/emails, etc.
Jennifer's great idea to make this chart, orig w/ measles, TB and COVID.
@rdumont99 kicked @JenniferKShea and I to update, @jljcolorado joined. I dumped 18 mo of studies in and we searched a few new. There are more out there.
The amusing thing is you had contagion and airborne long distance (miasma).
And then when they discovered germs and realize germs lived inside us they could put the two together and you had close contact. Because outside body, germs die over time.
Chapin say this, but he got too heady on droplets.
That meant 5oo much close. Statistics of decay means less long but there is long.
Never should have been 2m rule as rule.
And so, fomites is dead. Contagion dead. Miasma dead. Close contact as a rule dead.
Anyway I asked Google whether it knew viruses were aerosol spread and was keeping that from us, and it said "of course not because it's so obvious, human."
