5 πŸ“Œ's.

One for each day of the @CDCDirector's virus friendly 5 day isolation policy.

This policy will make @RWalensky personally responsible for more death, sickness, and virus transmission than any other person in history.

Let's walk and talk....
Hyperbole?

No. The CDC's policies are copied the world over, because of their formerly stellar reputation.

A sampling:

Quebec
cbc.ca/news/canada/mo…
Ontario
toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-introd…
Alberta, British Columbia
aljazeera.com/news/2021/12/3…

So, the policy is spreading like Omicron.
And helping spread Omicron.

Why? 8 days. Omicron is infectious UNTIL at least 8 days.

The rest is just math.



But surely the CDC came to consensus decision? This is the decision of the world's finest collection of Public Health scientists?

No.
She largely crafted the guidance with the help of a small group of friends.

"She largely crafted the guidance with" does NOT say

"she arrived at the decision based on the consensus of the CDC's scientists."

She made the decision. Her friends wrote it.

You see the tweets everywhere.

Corporations are following the 5 day policy. Forcing their still sick employees into the office.

Into your office.

Which leads to more coworkers getting sick. Who get their families sick.

All of which continues to slam the hospitals.
If you work in a hospital, you need to realize that those sick coming in now?

Are a result of @RWalensky's personal decision.

So, when she says how much she supports you?

Remind her of this decision. Loudly. Angrily.

Because you have a right to be angry.

For the rest of us
πŸ“ŒThink of "5 pins" as you go into work and see the feverish gleam of your coworkers' eyes.

πŸ“Œ Think of "5 pins" as your children are infected by your frantic daycare employee.

πŸ“Œ Think of "5 pins" as you pay the coughing cashier.
πŸ“Œ Think of "5 pins" as you comfort your loved ones, praying that you don't get sick.

πŸ“Œ Think of "5 pins" as you argue with your significant other because it's been 5 days.

Kudos for finally showing your cards as antimaskers.

And showing us that if we too lived in Marin County, CA, we could have HEPA's in every class, 98% vaccination, and make $170,000/ year.

But we live in Birmingham, AL.
Or towns like Birmingham with people that normally would hang on to your every word.

But now, where "the staffing shortages left classrooms without teachers. Schools were without essential staff such as child nutrition workers to serve meals and custodians to clean buildings"
Lol...the ad link below is to another story, "Who's really learning? 1 in 3 Alabama students sent home."

Anyway, teachers have only 5 students showing up.

That's our normal.

We, all, are the #corsirosenthalbox community come to life.

We all share the common interest of having clean lungs - and not catching CoVid.

This is a 🧡of homes in which one person unfortunately brought CoVid back.

But homes where no one else caught it.
Please @ me if I didn't catch your story when I was meandering the halls of Twitter, and you want to be in this 🧡.

As @JimRosenthal4 always says, and I have seen @CorsIAQ agree with.

"We are not helpless!"

Hi - quite the heart-warming story! Really well done. Below is a slightly different take on it.

But I have yet a different take - I am pitching a follow-up piece where you could do a lot of good.
In your story, there were a couple of shots that immediately caught my eye.

Shots which show that the IPC practices were based on the idea that CoVid is not airborne.

Surgical masks in the ambulance, and the wide shot showing roughly 6 feet of separation.

But #CoVidIsAirborne.
For airborne diseases, the minimum PPE are N95's.

Don't listen to me or the fact that Biden is getting N95's to all regular Americans.

Listen to the @WHO and @OSHA_DOL.

Worried about your glasses fogging up when you wear your N95 or ASTM-2 surgical mask with your @FixTheMask?

Got 2 minutes and 39 seconds?

@masknerd is just crushing it with these new Mask Nerd Short videos!

(I subscribed....)

To review...

If they fog up a bit after you breathe out, but NOT IMMEDIATELY, that's probably your hot air being caught by the mask. And then diffusing through the mask and rising up over the glasses - fogging them up.

But still worried?
How much is your peace of mind worth?

$100? $200?
