The Chief Scientist of the World Health Organization, folks, speaking to a very important subtext.

The historically IAQ inequity that exists world-wide based on racism.

In America? The completely inadequate HVAC of urban schools.

Driving on I5 through ANY major city?
Look out your window. You have time as you are stuck in traffic.

Think about two things.

1. Why haven't you improved your air quality in your car by:

✅ Building a mini #corsirosenthalbox.
✅ Replacing your cabin air filter with HEPA grade.
✅ Or wearing an N100.
Two hours a day sucking in UltraFine Particles (UFPs). Like cancer? Systematic inflammation? Endothelial Dysfunction (same initials as Erectile Dysfunction)? Asthma? COLD?

2. The second thing. Our racist forefathers had the freeway system slammed through predominantly black neighborhoods.

Those neighborhoods have been
exposed to UFPs for decades, with the accompanying negative effects.
UFPs. Let's list out some of the negative health consequences.

14 cancers associated with UFPs.

No big deal, right? Listening to some good tunes on your car radio?

Take a big whiff. Image
Do they cross the blood-brain barrier? Image
List the neurological problems associated with UFPs.

All 14 of them.

Smell like Teen Spirit to you?

Mask mandates REDUCED the bioaerosols by 69%.

Air cleaners by 39%.

Masking is important - but both are necessary.

Air cleaners - the mask for the entire room when kids' masks slip. Image
The tweet above seems to have a bit of a rocket attached to it, so attaching a conversation that you SHOULD listen to while driving home from work....

A little more on this study...the number of positive Covid saliva samples:
No intervention: 11.1%
Air Cleaner: 7.7%
Mask: 5.7% Image

Covid Challenge Study.

Ah...I have some questions about this Delta variant based study that started on May 12.

Study is here:
trials.ovg.ox.ac.uk/trials/covhic0…

Detailed Trial Sheet here:
trials.ovg.ox.ac.uk/trials/sites/d…
First question?

Did anyone notice that 2021 asking for their variant, Delta, back?
Second question...did anyone with the study not notice that Covid is a clinically significant illness? That even in the mild form causes lung fibrosis? Image

Very happy to see this paper published - congratulations!

A quick thread on this study that naturally arose when a portable air cleaner (aka HEPA for most ) was turned off - and they were fortunately already measuring PM, Particulate Matter.
Keeping in mind that 85% of viral load is found in 5 micron or smaller respiratory aerosols.

Respiratory aerosols are also Particulate Matter.

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…. Image
In this new study and in general:

PM1
PM fraction <1 μm diameter.

PM 2.5
PM fraction between 1 and 2.5 μm diameter (PM2.5) (±10 μg/m3)

PM 4
PM fraction between 2.5 and 4 μm diameter and
-------------------
PM10
PM fraction between 4 and 10 μm diameter.

Personal responsibility is most often heard these days as:

Biden's Covid Campaign Promises.

He lied. He broke those promises.

As this video shows, in his own words - Covid was the MAIN thing he campaigned on.

He would shut down the virus. And a BUNCH of other lies.

The reporter's bias is clear. But since
@TheDemocrats are marching in lock-step behind Biden "No primary debate" Biden, with no one criticizing him?

You take what you can find.

BTW I write this as a life-long Democrat. So, if you want to argue with me, both politically and Covid savvy?

Bring it. I am furious.
Here's a Diamond WaPo piece on some of those broken promises.

Just had a birthday dinner at JungleJim's restaurant in Mulege, Baja California, Mexico.

10 people. Only me in any mask. An N95- the @3M 8511.

First topic of conversation? My respirator. We'll come back to that later in this story.
Main conversation topic? How many people have died over the last three years.

No one has seen anything like it.

I just smized, commiserated, and kept on keeping on.

Everyone had the ribs. Which were, so good?
restaurantguru.com/Jungle-Jm-Hero…

Simply to die for.
I would hold my breath, doff, drink from a straw, redon, purge the air, and had a great time!

And now, I actually eat take-out. No rib is worth dying for. No birthday, no celebration.

Was there a little social awkwardness? Sure - on their part for a brief second.

My devil Ribs so good, that someone ...
