There are ~10 million doctors in the world.

Here are 10 who have literally been 1 in a million during the pandemic.

We can't thank you enough. ๐Ÿ™

Well that's been a long day

4 am to 2 am

So far ๐Ÿ˜Š

But all good

After a 4h operation I was delivered to lucky PACU Bed #13

And the love of my life
โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ Image
I was supported with friendly, attentive, experienced staff

Tim Hortons

Cold compression therapy

Great ventilation

And more love โค๏ธ Image
Until it was finally time to say goodbye to my newfound friends

When a bed finally opened up a few hours later

Which initiated a major project for Suzi, transporting a lot of 'stuff' from PACU and from our truck in the parking garage up to our room Image

Another junk RCT came out

This time claiming "air purifiers don't reduce exposure to viruses in classrooms"

BOLLOCKS Image
1st clue this was going to be a junk study: they did an RCT

Wrong tool

There is no equipoise, no unknown or barely discernible benefit to weigh against likely harm
2nd - Many studies already show cause & effect & mathematically quantify the relationship between exposure levels / reduction levels of pathogens in air and infections

An RCT is two steps backwards at this point

And could be considered unethical

I learned something new this morning

Inhaled fine particles can cross the alveolar capillary junction into the bloodstream

Where red blood cells can pick up, carry and deposit the particles into organs and tissue cells throughout the body

๐Ÿ˜ณ
Sadly, fine particles can be quite toxic

Laden with chemicals and heavy metals

Like particles from vehicle exhaust for example

Including diesel exhaust with toxic particles <1 ยตm in diameter

link.springer.com/article/10.100โ€ฆ
The fact these particles can directly enter the bloodstream and wreak havoc throughout the body adds a whole new dimension to the issue of air pollution

I broke a front tooth recently

And needed an extraction and implant

A 2 hour procedure

So off to the oral surgeon I went yesterday Image
Staff were masked

HEPA Air filter was on

I wore my [breathe]2

As usual
For the procedure I donned a filtered nasal CPAP Image

Important Study from Canada ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ
๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Risk mitigation of shared room ventilation and filtration on SARS-CoV-2 transmission: a multicenter test-negative study | Infection Control &amp; Hospital Epidemiology | Cambridge Core - bit.ly/3Vf0RyX
โฌ†๏ธ ventilation = โฌ‡๏ธ Covid HAIs

Increasing from 1 to 6 ACH = 50% reduction
(~40% to 20% attack rate)

Increasing from 6 to 10 ACH = more reduction
(~20% to 10% attack rate) Image
"For each additional ACH, we measured an estimated 12% lower odds of infection, while presence of any RMV carried approximately 50% lower odds."

Good News!

Canadian Standards Association (CSA) has called for universal respirator use in healthcare settings & when performing patient care outside of healthcare settings (eg โ€“ in the home) in the latest edition of CSA Z94.4, Selection, use and care of filtering respirators.
How you can help:

The draft CSA Z94.4 Standard is now out for Public Review until August 19, 2025.

Please weigh in with your positive, constructive comments at .

Public Review comments are open to everyone who registers.publicreview.csa.ca/Home/View/2256โ€ฆ
The draft Standard embodies the Precautionary Principle.

In the absence of risk analysis, N95s are required because healthcare spaces & activities involve daily HCW exposure to Risk Group 2 (RG 2) pathogens like Influenza and RG3 pathogens like SARS-CoV-2, often unknown.
