The only way we can adequately manage risk in healthcare in a pandemic with an airborne pathogen is by having sustainable processes & resources in place to cope with a high volume of cases.

Stockpiles of disposable PPE expire & run out quickly, ramping up processes/skills takes too long, & we can’t rely on building infrastructure being brought up to scratch in a hurry.

Airborne precautions for respiratory tract pathogens needs to be an increasing part of our healthcare routine.

@Infoseepage Armburst were great, but:

  1. They may be able to produce at volume, but they still require raw materials (filter media was a bottleneck) and supply pipelines.
  2. It took months for them to eventually deliver at volume

We should absolutely maintain minimum purchase contracts for appropriate PPE and may benefit by moving some of the demand away from surgical/medical masks to something designed for respiratory protection.

Going through a phase of encouraging our son to be more self reliant at home.

This morning’s self-prepared breakfast was drumroll…

“Vapes were sold to governments & communities around the world as a therapeutic good: a product that could help hardened smokers kick the habit.
If vapes are therapeutic goods then it is entirely appropriate that Australia should regulate them as therapeutic goods, instead of allowing them to be sold alongside chocolate bars in convenience stores, often down the road from schools.
One in 6 high school students, & 1 in 4 young Australians aged between 18 & 24 are vaping.”

This paper reports transmission occurring after 4 hours of vacancy in a room with 6 ACH ventilation measured at some undisclosed time before the outbreak.

24 air changes (6 ACH x 4 h) is a 99.999999996% reduction. Highly improbable to infect. More likely the actual ventilation rate was much lower at the time. https://www.ajicjournal.org/article/S0196-6553(24)00162-7/abstract

@Infoseepage @DavidElfstrom this alternative route of infection absolutely needs to be considered

Whenever I see OpenAI's Sam Altman with his pseudo-innocent glance, he always reminds me of Carter Burke from Aliens (1986), who deceived the entire spaceship crew in favor of his corporation, with the aim of getting rich by weaponizing a newly discovered intelligent lifeform.

Ventilation can reduce exposure to respiratory viruses in indoor spaces.

“Steps for cleaner air to prevent the spread of respiratory viruses can be taken any time, especially when:
• Respiratory viruses are causing a lot of illness in your community.
• You or those around you were recently exposed to a respiratory virus, are sick, or are recovering.
• You or the people around you have risk factors for severe illness”

Where has all that outraged 'expertise' gone that used to inform us about 'fake PCR positives'?
They realise PCR has been and continues to be used for eveything from identifying STI & faceal infections, to finding flu, common cold and pneumonia causes, to tracking down measles & monkeypox viruses?
