Logically, mechanistically, and as shown in studies.

This pic below? The WHO is trying to get ahead of this one.

Unfortunately, for them, has the right stuff to blow down their house of cards. scholar.google.com

A little dark humor to start, because, really, how many lies do we have to catch them in?

(As always, I am fan of public health. Not a fan of political health as the CDC is under Walensky and Redfield).

First study...

Approximately 90 minute viability in the usual Goldberg drum. At a very rough glance because this first step of the dance is boring.

Anywho, MVD is not very stable, thankfully.

As seen below, aerosol transmission possible.

mdpi.com/1999-4915/14/4…
Image
Next... Our monkey pals. Does MVD cause damage to the lungs, where aerosols are produced?

Not at first, but we see filoviruses like MVD use the aerosol route.

Later on, we see the lung pathology. Lots of it.

Yes, lungs involved (aerosols).

mdpi.com/1999-4915/8/4/…

Another bunch of monkeys.

Exposed to aerosolized MVD. Died.

Establishes that if virus gets into URT or LRT, can cause infection in nonhuman primate.

Also, this breed is a very good stand in for humans in respiratory disease testing.

We die, too.

journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
Image
Same study... inhalation is not a "prominent" method of transmission.

But it is possible.

So, if there is a remote possibility of me catching a disease with 50% fatality?

You can bet that your boy will be in a 3M 6800 full face N100.

And so should you. Image
Symptoms of Marburg include vomiting.

Guess what generates huge amounts of aerosols? (Vomiting - don't tell @RWalensky, let's let it be a surprise.)

cdc.gov/vhf/marburg/sy…

Symptoms also include coughing. Thank you, Mayo Clinic.

Guess what generates huge amounts of aerosols?

Coughing. (Fine - breathing, talking, laughing, singing, all produce aerosols.)

We can take a look at our villian's origin story. Oops, they said aerosols.

That will disappear soon. Web. is our friend!

Something to consider. The @CDCgov and @WHO's contact trace methods are based on direct contact.

They wouldn't know how to use the Gesundheit 2 to save @DrTedros's reputation. Or how to do full traces, including everyone in the room. Or in the next room.

To use smoke.
So, all of those epi studies?

About as useful as @RWalensky 's magical 5 day isolation policy, when trying to rule out airborne transmission.

How about this? You nay-sayers, explain the origin of the 6 foot distance rule. The 15 minute transmission rule used today.
I can explain where they come from, can you?

Sorry if I am being aggressive.

We have sat around for far too long. I am calling it like I see it, and it's all self-reinforcing bullshit.

I am talking directly to you, John Conly and others of his ilk.

Get out of the damn way.
Let me show you what I mean by self-reinforcing.

In this fascinating treatment of a lost case of Marburg, the authors explore how the wife got infected.

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Image
Notice how they did not discuss the fact they were breathing the same air?

Instead, they bent over backwards to pull a sexual event out of a medical article written after the fact.

Which just might have been crass boasting.

Who knows?

In any event, our attention is now
focused on sex and fluids.

Ignoring the 22,000 breaths they took back then per day - and we all still take (H/T @kprather88 for that fun factoid).

One final note for now.

Elite Panic. That is when the elite panic that the common person will freak out.
Let's stop that, right the eff now, @RWalensky @ashishkjha. Enough. Grow up.

Just tell us the truth. Because they did that here 👇👇. And it went just fine - when they were matter of fact.

When they told half-truths, as in Germany 👇, people lost their minds. Image
Oh, btw?

It's also transmitted all the usual ways as well.

Sexually, fomites, droplets, butterfly kisses (eye to eye).

But fortunately, it's just not too transmissible.
Not yet.
I sure did. Unlike the CDC, I don't delete uncomfortable truths.

(Though I believe my godforsaken Autocorrect did that to me.)

But - it is my responsibility, so my apologies!

Thank you, @Lysistrata2022

#MarburgVirus

Not sure what the first tweet's Marsburg is all about....
#marburgisairborne
Never mind this Marburg Virus update.

It's just the Department of Homeland Security saying it can be transmitted via aerosols.

dhs.gov/sites/default/…
MARV can be directly transmitted via blood and other bodily fluids. The virus may also transmit via aerosol and fomites; however, the stability of the virus is not well understood. • Limited data on MARV stability may be supplemented with available data pertaining to EBOV, as both viruses are members of the family Filoviridae and primarily transmit through direct contact. • EBOV maintains infectivity in whole blood and plasma after 5 days, even when the blood is stored at 37°C. • EBOV loses all infectivity in urine and semen at 37°C within 4-5 days and 5 days, respectively. • EBOV remains...

"COVID IS OVER, YOU DON'T NEED THAT!"

Reason 4,657 on why I mask now that I understand aerosols and transmission. It's not all about COVID.

How do we know TB is airborne?

71 guinea pigs gave their lives between 1956 and 1958 in the eponymous study by Riley et al, getting TB air piped in from some TB patients, to prove TB is airborne.

Influenza is kind of airborne per most doctors. But kind of not.

So....

We need some volunteers.

Will horses be those volunteers that finally lay it all out?

Yes - but none of them lost their lives.

Air samplers were deployed and tracked horses inoculated with Equine influenza virus (EIV).

From the very first day post inoculation (dpi), until the Image
12th day, EIV was found in the air, in this new study.

With no horses, or guinea pigs, hurt in the process.



But sure, influenza's not airborne - if you are the USDA, right, @nirav_maine?

Of course, yet another new study points an accusatorysciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thank you @BarryHunt008 for flagging this.

@ThailandMedicaX, retweeted by some because of their controversial takes (ahem, their lies?), is saying that FAR-UVC is dangerous because somehow the light will get into the lungs.

Lol.

They are just apparent supplement grifters.

I noticed they were using @NukitToBeSure's excellent torches as their example picture.

Strange to be so selective of an example picture for someone purporting to be an independent news source on health.

Hmm. I helped defend Nukit against charges of Image
racism by a very nasty couple who it turned out just do not like UVC, personally. I wonder....

Yep, ThailandMedicalX has blocked me.

But, it's weird for a purported news source to block someone like me @gorskon
@doritmi @19joho.

And them blocking me, is probably because Image

You've heard of "The Three Problem." - great book, and excellent Netflix series.

If you want to be avoid catching Covid, you probably have "The Empty Room" situation in the back of your mind.

How long after a room had people in it, can you safely demask?

Measles was thought to be airborne after a child caught measles an hour after the infected child left the same office.

.

Interestingly, you can see the reluctance in blue below to call measles airborne. Much like the WHO with @mvankerkhove researchgate.net/publication/19…In February 1981, a measles outbreak occurred in a pediatric practice in DeKalb County, GA. The source case, a 12-year-old boy vaccinated against measles at 11 1/2 months of age, was in the office for one hour on the second day of rash, primarily in a single examining room. On examination, he was noted to be coughing vigorously. Seven secondary cases of measles occurred due to exposure in the office. Four children had transient contact with the source patient as he entered or exited through the waiting room; only one of the four had face-to-face contact within 1 m of the source patient. The...
which spent millions to rebrand SARS2 as "through the air" rather than airborne.

It is an inconvenient truth that then leads us to the study showing an #EmptyRoom SARS2 infection at 1 hour and 43 minutes, and FOUR HOURS and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES.

In this study, it comes with Experimental evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 remains viable within aerosols with a half-life of approximately 1-3 hours, though changes in aerosol microenvironment may shorten viability to minutes. However, it remains unclear how long airborne SARS-CoV-2 can transmit infection. Whole genome sequencing of nasopharyngeal samples obtained from patients on an outbreak unit suggested in-room transmission of the delta variant, AY3 lineage, of SARS-CoV-2 to two patients admitted 1 hour, 43 minutes and 4 hours, 45 minutes after discharge of an asymptomatic infected patient. These findings suggest...

Mum's the word - if @SecKennedy is Mum.

You see, I have been a VERY FOCAL CDC critic. But you can't criticize without listening.

And I have been noticing that that the CDC has been very, very quiet.

NPR noticed as well. Image
This is crazy. Image
Yes, the @CDCgov has been deathly quiet.

90 times last year, versus 4 this year.

This is not MAHA.

This is MASA - Make America Silent Again.

And as one of the CDC's most focal critics? We NEED them to be sharing Public Health information. Image

I have a new thing to say to why I mask.

Ronald Reagan, Michael J Fox, Robin Williams, Lou Gehrig, Bruce Willis.

Alzheimer's, Parkinsons, Lew Body Dementia, ALS, CJD

All of them are dying or are dead from - the common cold.

You see,
One of the main viruses that results in the cold is a virus called OC43.

And it turns out that it's neuroinvasive - and is strongly associated with all of those diseases.

Even though it's just a cold in the beginning. So, those are 5 really bad diseases that I am protecting
myself from.

Kind of like HIV is often just like a cold or a mild case of flu in the beginning.

So, yeah, I mask so I don't catch a cold.

Or Covid - which is also neuroinvasive, and let me tell you all about the horrible things it does to your body much quicker....
