CoVid Medical Conference Rater. I am giving the Nashville #shmconverge22 Hospitalist Convention of April 7-10, 2022, a rating of 2/10.

Bob Wachter was the plenary speaker.

Only the cardiologists were as bad.

Why do I do this? Because I view them as engaging in medical misinformation.

They are supposed to be good examples.

They are not.
And hospitalists are the ONE group that should get how important it is to not catch CoVid.

I am so disappointed.

Bob Wachter was the plenary speaker. He himself points out the lack of masks.

For the cheap seats....

THIS IS WHY WE NEED MASK MANDATES!

If the one group that has suffered more PTSD than any other group, won't protect themselves?

Who will?
In this grouping of pictures, you'll notice one doctor.
The same one who then took a picture with Dr. Wachter.

I am not trying to shame here, but to show you...we need mask mandates.
Even for leaders in the medical community, because they will not protect themselves.
I didn't even have to try hard to find these.

I'm busy so no time to go dig up the bar pictures. They are out there. They always are.

A 🧵 on two outbreaks in two Hong Kong restaurants.

The study shows that the Secondary Attack Rate was SIGNIFICANTLY reduced with the implementation of UV-C germicidal lights.

How can that be, except if #CoVidIsAirborne?

And hot tip- if you HAVE to go to a restaurant?
Sit by the front. Most restaurants are designed to have the air flow from the front to the back.

Don't want too much cooking smell in the front of the house, right? Discussed here
rddmag.com/design/3213-ve…

But from this study.👇👇

Hotter tip?
🔥Don't eat out.
🔥Eat outside.
This is important if you read the study.

The first outbreak, called R1, happened in Restaurant 1, also called R1.

Same for second outbreak and restaurant. R2, R2.

Basic timeline is as follows.

Older study, April 2021.

✅HVAC facilitated transmission of CoVid.
✅ Nosocomial superspreading event-12 patients, 9 HCWs.
✅ 6/9 air exhaust grilles (out of reach) contaminated (more than fomites).

academic.oup.com/cid/article/73…
✅Epi analysis, enviromental samplings, genomically confirmed, low background transmission.
Solution to this outbreak?

"Portable high-efficiency particulate filters were installed in each cubicle to improve ventilation before resumption of clinical service."

They also added goggles for the staff to go with their ASTM1 surgical masks (same mask worn by patients, too).

How come no reporter has done any articles on how the Biden admin is communicating CoVid information?

What sort of ad campaigns are being run by their "Mad Men"?

I got curious so after finding nothing, I counted Tweets.

@WHCOVIDResponse team and mask.

8 total from February 2021 to July 2021. Which is when Zients grabbed his toys and went home.

@CDCgov - Please consult with your folks over at
@NIOSH_NPPTL @NIOSH.

This is misinformation.

N100 elastomeric respirators are available and are better than N95s.

(There are better still, but will let that other RPE go.)

@NIOSH - you have replied to my tweets before,

🧵
so do please get them straightened out.

@CDCgov , you have communicated N95s are at hardware stores, previously. Why not do that when you correct your misinformation?

"N95s and N100s are ...."

I can't believe I have to share this with the @CDCgov, but since you are not consulting with @NIOSH / @NIOSH_NPPTL ?

Here's why N100s are better.

99.97% IPE versus 95%.

And comfort and fit:

The Bidens in respirators despite a solid green "low" in DC.

Harris not in a respirator despite being a close contact and in violation of the CDC quarantine/isolation guidelines.

Mixed messaging for a nation.

What is not mixed? The CDC messaging in Community Levels.

🧵 Image
First, DC rates are:

142 cases per 100K
2 admits per 100K
1.6% is the Inpatient %.

Look at the metrics 👇. No matter how high the CASES go?

It always stays at Medium level, as long as admits or inpatient % stats low..

And, it take about 2 weeks to end up in the hospital. ImageImage
If we had a very transmissible variant, it could rip through the population...and all of a sudden, huge numbers will need the hospital at once.

But let's say this is the first two weeks,with 10,000 cases per, and it's medium.

What are the things we can do, per the CDC?

Guess who this convention is?

1000's of neurologists.

If you search this
#AANAM, you'll see the most masks out of any recent medical convention.

Guess they know the effects CoVid can have. 👇👇👇👇

Made me happy and thinking WA won't be hammered.

But. ImageImageImageImage
The opening party? Sigh..... So they kick off and get everyone infected. And then stay all week infecting all of Seattle? Image
No masks while dancing enthusiastically.
