Let's put this to rest. It is NEVER time to panic. Never, ever. At no time will anyone ever say "Ok, time to panic". If you are in public health, preventing "panic" is NOT YOUR JOB. Your job is PREVENTING DISEASE.

Lyn was a busy health professional, one of the thousands who now has Long Covid. We need to protect our health workers with #CleanAir or more will joining Lyn in being unable to work, feeling like she has been hit by a bus.

1/ Kudos to Matthew Oliver, Mark Ungrin, & Joe Vipond. It's an opinion piece, but rooted in logic and truth. For an airborne infectious disease you lower inhalation dose & the ways to do so don't require empirical RCTs. Basic engineering science will do. scientificamerican.com/article/masks-…

Wonderful of @radionz to hold space for our us today. For those suffering, there is hope. We are working very hard in the background to create tools. If you have ways to help us seek funding to develop some of these, please get in touch. rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
When we talk about policy that sends kids and adults to school and work sick, we have to talk about our legal health and safety obligations - which is to ensure safe schools/workplaces. Media, please cover this when reporting on the new guidelines in NZ.
Small reminder to parents: a ‘minor infectious respiratory illness’ to your kid could EASILY send a disabled kid to hospital.

Two points. First, it is highly likely that many farm workers have been infected with H5N1, and, second, that to grip this problem it is very important to have a deep understanding and respect for the communities in which it is occurring. Trust is the bedrock of public health.

Congratulations to Professor @kprather88 🥳 Creative and groundbreaking research that has led to advances in the understanding of natural and anthropogenic aerosols in their impact on climate and human health, including aerosol transmission of Covid. youtube.com/live/5hNQt4p1x…
Accepting the 2024 NAS Award in Chemical Sciences is #NASmember Kimberly A. Prather of @UCSanDiego and @Scripps_Ocean for her pioneering research on aerosols. #chemistry #NAS161 #NASaward Watch live: ow.ly/pWZk50RqemO
@AmandaKvalsvig The knock on effect of this is that we were not able to grow it to as high a titre. It made working with a much slower process (hence most of the paper being on the Delta). Not sure how growing dynamics affects transmission, but I'm guessing it must play some kind of role.
@AmandaKvalsvig I'm glad you found our work interesting. The difference between Omicron and all the other variants went beyond just aerostability. It had very different growing dynamics that made it hard to work with. For example, it grew much slower than all the other VOCs.
@AmandaKvalsvig would work for other viral types. We just know that this works alright for SARS-CoV-2. I'm glad you find our work interesting!
@AmandaKvalsvig The idea of a simple assay to roughly estimate viral aerostabilty has been something we've thought about. We've found that if one measures the viral decay in a pH 11 solution, the decay profile isn't too far off. This isn't to say that the pH in the aerosol is 11, or that this...
@TRyanGregory I know what “panic” is in an individual. I know what mob violence is. I understand irrational bulk buying can be a problem. But I have NO IDEA what a “public health panic” is, except concern in the absence of information, which may be rational when dealing with novel pathogens.
I’m excited to discuss our latest research on how ambient CO2 affects how long #SARSCoV2 remains infectious in air. We report that even subtle increases in CO2 affects both how long #COVIDisAirborne and transmission risk. Here’s a🧵going over the findings nature.com/articles/s4146…
@AmandaKvalsvig @TRyanGregory 💯 even more so if they have a large platform
Let's put this to rest. It is NEVER time to panic. Never, ever. At no time will anyone ever say "Ok, time to panic". If you are in public health, preventing "panic" is NOT YOUR JOB. Your job is PREVENTING DISEASE.
