When you are wrong, you apologize - as I did after seeing @bencowling88 and @jburnmurdoch's analysis of the 53% masking study.
You retract if the honest errors are particularly large or impactful.
I propose that Loeb (2009) and Radonovich (2019) need to be retracted as they were measuring the efficacy of N95's versus surgical masks in protection from an airborne disease - but using droplet protocols.
Hi Dr. Schofield - I'm working on a thread that I could use some additional information on?
In ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… (such a great study!), the supplementary doc does not seem to contain a diagram of the ward.
Do you have such an architectural diagram?
If
not, did I assume correct with the patient room labelling in the first picture, and do you have the length and width of the room in the second picture? I saw the overall floor space of 12.8 m2, but wasn't sure about how it was split.
Thank you!
For others - this is a
fantastic study to see how portable air cleaners ONLY ENHANCE current HVAC standards.
Doesn't matter whether it's a hospital (normally 6 ACH), a school (just over 1 ACH), or an office (quite often 3 ACH).
Your home? Usually just like a school - and what is called "poor"
Have FFP2 (their N95) respirators available for 59 cents in stores.
They are mandatory. No cloth masks. Poor and elderly got free ones. google.com/amp/s/amp.fran…
