Fun to watch the same things come up again and again with respect to each virus/pathogen. 🤷

Low risk that fomites transmit SARS-CoV-2.

Just a thread of references.
Kotwa, Jonathon D et al. ‘Surface and Air Contamination with SARS-CoV-2 from Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients in Toronto, Canada, March-May 2020’. The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 27 November 2021, jiab578. doi.org/10.1093/infdis….
"The infrequent recovery of infectious SARS-CoV-2 virus from the environment suggests that the risk to healthcare workers from air and near-patient surfaces in acute care hospital wards is likely limited."

Reminder N95s are only rated for 95% protection, although that's closer to 98-99% real world. That's still 1% getting through. It wasn't necessarily eyes.
This is an excellent chart.

Lesson: layer protections.

Also, as someone noted though, and I agree with it and it is a good clarification, fit is probably the issue more so than filtration.

I cannot begin to imagine how many hours of work went into each study, then the meta, which concluded there is low quality evidence condoms are effective.

And that the best evidence was a trial where they literally handed people condoms at a motel room.

How science can be influenced.

Strategies to influence science. How many can you spot in use today?

It's fun "Where's DARVO" for everyone!
I can tell you right now, sophisticated industry pays for scientific studies to be done, so they can cite the studies later in their own support. Of course they do.

When they commission studies, they are skewed towards supporting their position, not neutral on science. Period.

Remember, if there is a wave AFTER the holidays, it's because you didn't spread ENOUGH virus DURING the holidays and thus your immunity debt needs repaying

That wave should, though, mean we are protected at Easter

Now, remember, if there is a wave AFTER Easter it's because...

How are the epis and other "immunity debt experts" even spouting off about this new concept before they explain why we didn't get the herd immunity they promised? 🙃

From a virus with an R0 more than at least 6 to start, and with waning immunity, I really wanted to know, too 🙃
