The 19th century eliminated cholera with engineering alone, without antibiotics or vaccines. The most important thing in dealing with emerging infectious diseases is to identify the mode of transmission and use physical methods to prevent spread.
Because everyone needs to know that an exclusive focus on hand hygiene won’t stop a respiratory pandemic.
@mvankerkhove @WHO @CDCgov @USDA @US_FDA There is no pandemic preparedness without tackling the mask stigma (normalization of mask wearing in crowded spaces, public transport, when levels of pathogens in wastewater rise, when infected), implementing universal masking in healthcare, and implementing IAQ regulations.
Hands up if you think there should be universal masking in healthcare.
@1goodtern Not all doctors are broken. Public health & professional societies are not advising physicians to wear PPE. There are no guidelines for prevention of reinfection in #LongCovid patients, for example. Busy docs depend on the above entities to guide care. These entities have failed.
Has anyone w/ recent flu infection tried to check their antibody titers for H5/H1/H3? I tried today. Apparently no major lab is ready to check/monitor for immunity/exposure to H5. @Labcorp @SunriseLab Quest? @APHL? Does anyone know where to send sera to check your antibodies to…
After my last lecture my always-masked student quietly asked me if there was a reason why I had worn a mask during all of my lectures and so I told them that I always wore it because I have a student who always wears one.
65 second challenge to help all CEV folk 1. Google any local dentist 2. Take a deep breath 3. Dial their number 4. Ask if they are happy to wear a respirator if asked 5. Go to safeinside.co.uk/month-of-noise and fill in the quick form (call script there if needed) 🙏
Nearly a billion work hours lost to long-covid in a single country! Can we do ventilation/air cleaning now pls.

disabled homies correct me if im wrong but we need y’all to realize for disabled people, masks are a mobility aid. Literally people who are high-risk NEED them to GET AROUND. ripping someone mask off is like taking away their eyeglasses, cane or hearing aid +

#Dentists - if you want to grow your practice, become #longcovid literate and create a safe office for LC patients to get work done. You will be busier than you can imagine.
Happy #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth! 🎉 A few key points 1. Wanting to protect yourself from COVID is not a mental illness 2. COVID itself can worsen mental health (see data 📉 below) 3. Bullying Covid cautious folks can also worsen mental health
I was on @scrippsnews last night talking about COVID, why we need clean air now, and how unsustainable the new status quo of forever reinfections is- for everyone video.snapstream.net/Play/36YLWMl8o…
@raghu_venugopal So for me, it isn't about masking being respected, it's about evidence and equipoise being respected, ie masking being required until there is true evidence it is not needed in the most serious care setting for vulnerable and elderly people.
@raghu_venugopal we did that at the Cross Cancer centre in Edmonton and promptly had an outbreak. HC facilities have an obligation to be safe spaces for their vulnerable patients. Asymptomatic airborne spread means we need to do universal HCW masking until there isn't covid in the community.
They keep saying "don't panic" about bird flu. What they're doing is projecting their own panic onto us. And what they're panicking about is their property and profits. That's called elite panic. We're Watching The Elite Panic in Real Time okdoomer.io/were-watching-…

@Clairecoast Tl;dr: It’s fine to continue to use as long as not fully immersed (i.e. dunked in water), just let dry out before next use. The bigger issue is that if it gets very damp during use the breathing resistance may go up, so it can temporarily become harder to breathe in. Video here:

Note that the article is very good. I'm commenting on the (awful) title. Authors of newspaper pieces don't get to write their own headlines, editors do that. This is why it's an issue. x.com/dalupton/statu…
Gemma did not give her article the ‘post-COVID’ title - please read her important words in the article itself, and you will see that her message is that COVID is not over (sub-editors write the headlines, not the authors, FYI)
The 19th century eliminated cholera with engineering alone, without antibiotics or vaccines. The most important thing in dealing with emerging infectious diseases is to identify the mode of transmission and use physical methods to prevent spread.
Mitigations, especially in hot spots/ super spreader places would stop/ slow variant soup. It's horrible and infuriating to watch this. We were *warned* by virologists back in 2020 / 21 not to let Covid rip in a partially vaccinated population.
For those banging on about KP.2* and how infectious it might be, KP.3* has already sailed straight past it in the UK. And that data is from infections that are already over a fortnight old.
One more time for good measure: the more people ignore basic protection protocols like masking, the more the virus spreads the more SARS-CoV-2 spreads, the more it mutates the more it mutates, possibilities increase of mutations that are even more lethal than the ones prior

A med school lecturer told us circa 1990 that by the time we graduate, 50% of hospital admissions would be from AIDS. It never happened because even before antivirals came, we used our insight into the mode of transmission to halt spread.

I want to stress that we are not in a situation where pandemic influenza vaccine production is needed. We are certainly seeing expansion of #H5N1 in animals - poultry, wild birds, mammals - with new species being infected. At present, the virus is an animal virus causing
Agree @michaelmina_lab. @CDCDirector @CDCgov claims labs are ready to test for #H5N1 when no commercial lab has a basic ELISA test available for flu subtypes. No POC or home-based tests for H5N1. For now, we might be stuck waiting in lines to get swab & a week for PCR result (ala…
@RickABright This is specifically why we need a global Immune Observatory. If we had gotten it funded 10 years ago when we started, we would’ve know about COVID. If it was funded during COVID, we’d know about H5N1 now. Instead, public health specific tools are entirely ignored
thousands of patients caught covid in victorian public hospitals in the past two years – and hundreds died – fuelling concerns that health services are not taking strong enough precautions against airborne viruses abc.net.au/news/2024-05-0…
@scott_squires 2 years ago today I was leaving a conference. The next day my symptoms started and a coworker I was with tested positive+. I have spent over $80k out of pocket on diagnostics, treatment and tools to function with long COVID. No comorbidity, elderly. Took Paxlovid. Before & after.
So many people taking their health for granted don’t realize that can change in an instant. Simply wearing a respirator mask reduces the risk of respiratory illness, including the most dangerous - Covid. Chronic illness is a life changer. Protect yourself & your loved ones.
Documents obtained under FOIA reveal "at least 6,212 patients caught COVID in hospital in 24 months...Of those, 586 died...with men dying at a higher rate than women [11% vs 8%]." Nearly 1 in 10 patients who caught COVID in the hospital died. How can anyone find this acceptable?
