Airplanes. Measles. 🧵

Measles Claimed 207,500 lives in 2019.

who.int/news/item/12-1…

CoVid claimed 3 million, although the official toll was 1,813,188.

who.int/data/stories/t…

For 2020 and 2021, aggregate, 18.2 million.

And now? CoVid is as
transmissible as measles. Or almost as.

Yet airplane transmission minimizers would have us believe we can safely ride planes.

Let's take a quick look at what the USA does with measles exposure on flights. 👇👇

jstor.org/stable/20056711
That was for one case of measles on board.

WHY?

Why would the government go to all that effort if airborne diseases are NOT easily transmissible on airplanes?
But maybe the US is just overly cautious. Let's look at the EU.

Nope. They contact EVERY SINGLE passenger and crew member.

WHY?

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Because transmission is possible.

Just like it is with CoVid, also an airborne disease.

And yet minimizers want us to take off our masks for situations in which measles are still on the books.

Guess what happens with measles cases on planes today?
👇 Just last month.
Local health departments were getting passenger manifests.

Frantically calling all the passengers.

Ordering quarantine.

And on that same exact flight, a CoVid+, was quietly tapping their fingers to their favorite song.

You might be reading this while on a plane right now.

Glance at the maskless guy or girl next to you, listening to their music.

And realize that #MeaslesIsAirborne.

That #COVIDisAirborne .

Oh - the song that both were listening to?

BTW, I just realized that someone will notice that for measles they try and contact within 5 days, so they can administer medicine.

Kind of sounds like that would work pretty well with the Test & Treat program, doesn't it?
Realized that the 3 million needed to have "in 2020" added to it or reads like in 2019. Sorry!

So, 40% of the cows in the Texas panhandle are infected, but just across the border in the Oklahoma panhandle, there are no cases?

You see, Rod Hall the Oklahoma state vet is on the case.

"We just don't want to have the public get any idea that there's anything wrong with continuing to do what they've always done with as far as consuming meat and milk," Hall said.

Nope, nothing to see here folks.

40 dairy farms in Texas. Alone.

Looks like this comes from pay to play Barron's:

barrons.com/articles/bird-…
This is absolutely scandalous now that it's been confirmed with a big H/t @MoreauGabarain !

❌ Been circulating since February all of Texas, and the Texas panhandle.

❌ Far more beef cattle in the Texas panhandle than dairy.

❌ No requirement to test. Any respiratory problem
Image
Image
@MoreauGabarain was unknown if it was bird flu.

Nonstop transmission results in mutation. Period.

And the Texas Panhandle has the cow cattle, by far. Image

.Udder to udder? Teat to teat? Are they pulling a fast one on us?

Let's walk and talk about guys peeing, first though - 🧵.

Peeing. Urinating. You heard me right. Let's GO!
You see, when liquid streams down from a height you get droplets. And, it turns out, lots of aerosols that are MOVING QUICK!

We know this thanks to Covid studies.

"The climbing velocity of the airflow can be 0.75–1.05 m/s. "

3 feet in a second! An infection in 14 seconds!
Image
Image
In this study, they found that virus aerosols would be lifted as high as a standing man's face.

Females were not measured, but the authors assured us they would suffer similarly.

H/t @jcooki1E

The stuff that comes out of chickens? Besides the eggs?

Yeah, that stuff.

It gets fed to the cows.

(Did I just become a vegetarian?🤮)

Great catch, mea culpa. My apologies for not catching that. Normally, I'd delete, but not this time.

We still have to worry about this, unfortunately, for dairy AND beef cattle.

The FDA has left it to the states.

This is a 2013 article well after the BSE-based temporary ban by the FDA in 2004. Which was rescinded after Big Ag stepped in.

In this article, 21 states reported "that they neither monitored nor maintained any data on the amount of poultry litter being used as cattle feed ". Image

Headstraps. Headaches. Earloops.

You need to meet people where they are - a thread on the above.
Some people have serious comfort issues with headstraps - resulting in headaches, ocular pain, facial pain, etc.

Worst of all - it might cause people to stop wearing respie protections.

You have to know the root causes 👇 before you suggest fixes.

The actual study is below if anyone wants to take a peek under the covers.

Right off the bat, the obvious problem with the comparison is the flu is only caught 1 every 5-6 years versus Covid's possible multiple times per year.

And that 5 studies have found a higher risk of

neurologic symptoms with Covid.

They then set out to "Based on prior reports, we hypothesized that COVID-19 survivors would have more neurologic health care and incident neurologic diagnoses in the year following hospitalization."

Which is a reasonable thing to check for.
They selected the most common neurologic diagnoses. But...are those the most common Covid diagnoses? Apples to oranges?

Evidently, this is plausible enough to the authors to mention it as a possible limitation to the study (in effect).
