@CriticalAerosol ran a subset of the OSHA respirator fit-testing procedure (e.g. normal breathing, deep breathing, side-to-side, etc). Image

Introducing the LaminAir. *Safer indoor dining. Safer working in the office.* At least double-digit exposure reduction factors, while breathing 12 inches away from the device šŸ¤Æ šŸ§µ (1)

First, what is exposure reduction factor (ERF)? It's a measure of how clean the air when using a device vs. not. If you get an exposure reduction factor of 20, that means the air is 20 times cleaner while using the device vs. not. (2)

Did a few flights recently. Last flight 5 out of 50 ppl were constantly coughing, unmasked. At another @UnitedAirlines_ flight, CO2 readings stayed consistently high (1300 ppm - 1500 ppm). Thanks for making me feel safe, @flo_mask. A review of the Flo Mask Pro šŸ§µ 1/x Breathability: 10/10. So far, I've used the Pro filter which is supposed to be harder to breathe through than the Everyday filter, but had no issues at all with it. I'm looking forward to trying out the Everyday filter! 2/x

Someone asked on reddit (bit.ly/2S5tOPA) about the "amicable disagreements" between @yudapearl & @_MiguelHernan are, and what the do-operator is. Here's my summary: (1) The do-operator represents an idealized intervention. In cases where the "treatment" is something that is well-defined (i.e. the exposure in a randomized control trial, such as taking aspirin), the two camps are in agreement. However, in cases where the "treatment" is ... (2)
