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…
Image
Symptoms also include coughing. Thank you, Mayo Clinic.

Guess what generates huge amounts of aerosols?

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

mayoclinic.org/diseases-condi…

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

That will disappear soon. Web. is our friend!

cdc.gov/vhf/marburg/tr…

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

Tacking on #MarburgVirusIsAirborne
#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...

"Dental cavities are an infectious, transmissible disease."

Whoa - that caught my eye. Diving in, a bacteria is involved:
Mutans Streptococci (MS).

MS & C albicans often team up - and that REALLY caught my eye.

C. albicans is airborne.


🧵 pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC66…S mutans eventually penetrates the enamel.
Before going on - the impact is HUGE. 👇

cdc.gov/nccdphp/priori…

And, #DYK that dental cavities is the most common CHRONIC DISEASE for kids? 👇 👇

medicine.iu.edu/blogs/pediatri…

Who has been ranting about chronic disease, @realLandsEnd @avierkant ?

open.spotify.com/episode/3J9hUb… Annual costs for dental care in the United States is $136 billion.4A On average, over 34 million school hours are lost each year because of unplanned (emergency) dental care.5 Almost $46 billionB is lost in productivity in the United States each year because of untreated oral disease.6 In 2017, there were 2.1 million emergency room visits for dental emergencies. Medicaid pays for about 69% of these visits for children and about 40% for adults.7
The most common chronic disease is cavities.
Who has promised to get chronic disease reduced measurably within two years by the order of TFG?

RFK. He is going to do so by putting infectious disease research on hold for 8 hours.

And removing fluoride. RFK reporting Trump wanted him to end chronic disease within two years.
Why Kennedy Sees an 'Epidemic' of Chronic Disease Among Children Trends in child health are in fact worrisome, and scientists welcome a renewed focus on foods and environmental toxins. But vaccines and fluoride are not the cause.

Thank you very much, Dr. Stone for laying out this 20 hour meeting so very clearly and concisely!

The HICPAC voted to deny HCWs N95s, deny ALL the protection of universal source control, and have HCW illness time to be so short as to be GUARANTEED to bring more LongCovid.

/1
We can see their lies by just looking at just a few seconds of one doctor's testimony.

To wit:
Doctors don't need N95s because the room has a PPE note on it.

But, after asking a few questions, they go get better PPE.

Here it is
Erica Shenoy, MD, PhD, Chief of Infection Control at Mass General Brigham, and a prominent committee voice who has published against masking in healthcare settings, argued that wearing an N95 respirator for initial patient contact was excessive. She told the committee that her practice is to go into a patient's room (without a respirator), ask a few questions, and then determine the level of protection needed. I understand that since I sometimes did the same—but that was long ago, and when I suspected my exposure would be minimal during that brief period.
To me, this is just a massive self-own by Harvard's Dr. Shenoy. She is too intelligent to be stupid, so this must be deliberate obtuseness.

Let's ignore her condescending tone (she was addressing a fellow HCW who knows exactly what the process is), and look at the facts.

Zombie Deers. Chronic Wasting Disease. Misfolded PRIONS in the brain - like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans.

✅ In 35 states.
✅ Incredibly stable in the environment.
✅ Highly contagious.

They are not sure how it's transmitted.

It's airborne. Can Rudolph infect Santa?

Normally, I do long threads, but busy, today.

So, here is the source for the basics on CWD:

Here's the study showing prions in saliva, which means it will be throughout the LRT and URT.

Fascinating educational article about vaccines and the immune system.

And this was an interesting bit -
Bacterial and viral infections predispose to other infections.

Get the flu? You are at greater risk for pneumococcal pneumonia.
/1 Bacterial and viral infections, on the other hand, often predispose children and adults to severe, invasive infections with other pathogens. For example, patients with pneumococcal pneumonia are more likely to have had a recent influenza infection than matched controls.62 Similarly, varicella infection increases susceptibility to group A-hemolytic streptococcal infections such as necrotizing fasciitis, toxic shock syndrome, and bacteremia.63
Those 👇 post influenza infection effects look familiar.

Where have I seen those types of symptoms before?

COV_D. Which we are getting every year, unlike the flu which is every 5-6 years.

Anywho.....

wellesu.com/10.1086/313772The theoretical bases for susceptibility to bacterial pneumonia following influenza infection are plentiful and include decreases in the function of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, and monocytes; increases in the adherence of bacteria to the respiratory epithelium; and decreased mucociliary clearance [14–19]. In studies of pneumococcal pneumonia in mice and squirrel monkeys, greater severity of disease and mortality resulted from infections due to pneumococcus and influenza virus together than from infections of either organism alone [20–21]. These animal studies sup...
Varicella (chickenpox)? Leads to Group A-hemolytic Streptococcal infection. Known affectionately as GAS, and exhibiting as
necrotizing fascitis.

researchgate.net/publication/12…VZV infection itself may cause a predisposing immune aberration or may allow invasion via another less apparent portal, such as lesions on the oral mucosa or the respiratory tract. In favor of an immune aberration is the fact that NF, the most severe manifestation of soft tissue infection, tended to occur more commonly in association with chickenpox than in nonchickenpox cases. Furthermore, Fujimara et al33 have presented evidence of a switch of the CD41 T cell profile in patients with varicella and underlying atopic dermatitis from a TH2 toaTH1 dominant type with a relative immunosuppressi...

I have my head so far up the governmental cow's butt on this one, I think I am uniquely qualified to answer on the difference between Biden and Trump on H5N1.

Ready for a🧵?
Biden's USDA is still denying airborne, and is still not telling the Spanish-speaking dairy workers that it is airborne. Or to wear an N95.

Biden's CDC is running Spanish ads on the radio and Facebook. Offering testing. Workers still not trusting the CDC.
Trump will get the CDC to continue to offer free testing clinics - and arrest the workers when they come in.

Nobody will want to milk or take care of the cows. They will continue to get sick, but really die without the intensive care they actually need with H5N1.

You go to the doctor to get better, not sicker.

There is a group called the HICPAC that tells the CDC what they should do regarding whether or not the guy with bright pink eyes in the bed next to you is wearing an N95 or not.

Whether your doctor comes back from Bermuda with
Covid - and either wears an N95 when he sees you or not.

Whether the hospital gives you attitude about your N95 - or joins you in wearing an N95.

They are going to vote today to say that Surgical Masks are Respiratory Protective Equipment - which is a lie. Per NIOSH/ OSHA.
What can you do?

Read this thread and then call the Inspector General’s office is very receptive. The direct phone number is 202-619-3148. Tell them the HICPAC did what is in that thread, and about them ignoring all airborne evidence.
