An Official Conference CoVid Mask Rater Thread: #2022ASA

These folks get a 9.5/10. Period.
A presenter in a respirator? What?!
More folks in respirators?! What!? So confused...The Public Health conferences never looked like this!?
@AmerStudiesAssn is swinging for the fences!

Respirators only, please!

Receptions outdoors? Can one fall in love with a conference? Pitter patter.

No one but us transmission prevention specialists know that transmission can still happen outdoors. But. Super-spreading is bloody well much less likely to happen.

So kudos.
Testing with 24 hours of conference start?
Rapid testing? Every day?!
"Have the bivalent boosters - or you are dead to us.".
A personal attestation....love to see it!

Would have loved to see #corsirosenthalboxes or HEPAs involved. Headband N95s instead of KN95s (60-70% fake on Amazon), as those earloops slowly ease forward.

And of course, having virtual - but they went out of their way to talk about that...this entire clip is about it.
So, not perfection, but you can tell they are trying, and have done a fine job.

And that's 1000% better than some of the others we've seen.

Over a year's worth of conferences:

Another absolutely horrible take by #FireWalensky, @CDCgov

“If you go two years without getting that infection, without getting that protection from infection and then all of a sudden, boom, everybody from zero to three years gets RSV, you see the impact on health care.” Image
Except. That's NOT WHAT the data shows

As we can see, the biggest spike is in 0 to 6 months, and in comparison to 2018-2019, it is much greater. Roughly, per 100k, 130 versus 70, and it is still spiking.

Second biggest spike is in 6 to 12 months, at almost 80, versus 30 at ImageImage
its highest.

In the 1 to 2 year olds, almost 40 this year vs. almost 20.
(The Y-axis is higher this year because of more cases).

If what Walensky is saying was true, we'd expect to see the 2 to 4 year olds screaming higher.

It's not. ImageImage

December 2021. You want to spend New Year's Eve in a low transmission place. Taiwan sounds nice, so you test negative and fly.

You stay in a quarantine hotel, but it looks different? The doorman tells you it's a REGULAR hotel being used for that.

You catch Covid.

Study 🧵
Turns out that the infected guy was in room 510 (5th floor), and infected you, in room 611 (6th floor), through the floors. He also infected room 503 through the walls.

But don't worry - too much.

In the study, the patient who infected the others is Case B. ImageImage
Don't worry too much? Is because the infections happened through structural defects between the floors and walls.

But don't be entirely complacent. HVAC typically is not a high priority during remodeling.

Structural defects often happen.

Pediatric hospitals the world over are swamped with RSV patients.

If you are reading this, you are most likely a journalist who has paraphrased some doctor who has heard some other doctor say something like this:

Masking led to our kids not having enough exposure to RSV.

🧵
95% of babies have been exposed to RSV by the age of 2, and so have developed antibodies.

With those antibodies, they should no longer be experiencing severe RSV.

But they are this year. Why?

scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&… Image
(Here the Mayo Clinic confirms that it is babies 6 months and younger who are most severely affected.)

Your expert would have you believe it's because the kids have not been sick enough. Image

@Maggie_Vespa - congrats on the clip - great job!

Something for you to consider? The experts laying this on masking? Please consider pushing back on them. 🧵

Prima facie - 10 day old Pippa Richard in your story. When would she have had a chance to get any immunity, save
for from her Mom?

Wouldn't it make more sense to advocate new parents, and people near, wear N95s?
Because RSV is airborne. In this thread I show the one study every doctor is taught (person named Hall) is wrong, because it teaches that RSV is not airborne.

And then I show RSV is airborne.

@RWalensky is the leader of the Urgency of Wealth (urgency of normal) in America, and currently has time to read this thread.

Why is she the leader? Because her every action has followed their game plan.

Schools are open with minimal NPIs in place. And they were opened with Image
the usage of Oster's database.

UrgencyOfNormal decries some things the CDC recommends, but a recommendation is not action.

You know what is crazy, besides Hoeg, Oster, Balsitis, McBride, and all the rest?

This is nothing new. In 1950, this was written decrying polio panic. Image
Calling for children to be able to lead normal lives by going swimming. And they went swimming.

In an all white pool. Municipal pools were not desegregated until 1963-1964.

USA Official #CoVidISAirborne Thread.

February 7, 2020 Trump admits privately to @realBobWoodward
that CoVid was airborne.

Bob doesn't reveal this until it comes out in his book.
September 10, 2020 Trump fully admits he knew it was airborne in early 2020.

That China had said this in a report (probably Presidential briefing.).

He knew. Biden would have been briefed on this, as would have @WHCOS, @RonaldKlain.

They knew.

cnbc.com/2020/09/10/tru… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image
The CDC knew CoVid was airborne on March 5th, 2020.

The CDC confirmed it was airborne on June 4th, 2020. Internally.

They knew.
