No one could have foreseen this.

Powered by the Wells-Riley model, our 3D simulations show how pathogens spread and how interventions (like better ventilation) help reduce risks.
Ideal for classrooms, offices, and more. airsupportproject.com/introd…

Introducing the Airwareness Support App a free, browser-based tool that simulates indoor air quality scenarios.
Customize room size, ventilation, occupancy, & pathogens. Visualize airborne infection risks and make smarter decisions for healthier indoor spaces.

Looking for volunteers! I along with the help of a few others are building a Mask Recommender Based on Facial Features. TLDR: Goal: scan a face with a phone to get accurate facial measurements, and get a list of masks that have high probability of fitting that individual's face.

Scenarios for how this tweet happened:
public health wants to tell people it's dangerous but is being muzzled (unlikely)
public health is trolling CC twitter (unlikely but not impossible)
public health pays more attention to pop culture than public health (very likely)

Earlier in the pandemic, there was a meme going around among covid cautious people that I didn't think made sense: "after the 10th infection the mice were all dead".
Mice don't live very long.
By the time you've infected mice ten times, they're at the end of their lifespan.

Read this story.
"This mother made six attempts to raise the alarm about her sick toddler. Doctors told her he’d be fine. They were fatally wrong."
And guess what the culprit was.
😮😥

I had a message today about a member of our community who is now badly ill with Covid after going to visit her mum who was in hospital with an infection.
Meanwhile, her mum has died from the infection.
The daughter tested herself for Covid.
The hospital never tested her mum.

What is the point of being in hospital if they don't actually test to determine the underlying cause of an infection? Anti virals definitely lessen the effects of a Covid infection, may have prevented the death! Sheer negligence. 😠

Why aren't they testing...
Multiple pressures as far as I can see:
Reduced budget for Covid related costs.
Personal desire to downplay the problem of covid.
Pressure from government to reduce numbers.
Bureaucratic and practical complications of positive tests.
Institutional ignorance around conditions caused by covid.
Instructions only to test people who are eligible for treatment, but reduced numbers of people eligible for treatment.
Government message that it's nothing to worry about since vaccinations.
Tern is one of the people who have done a great job demonstrating public health psychology, and they do it through these wonderful little stories

Imagine going to the doctor for treatment for diabetic neuropathy. Only, the doctor tells you diabetes isn't a thing, and suggests your fear of sugar is anxiety disorder, and you're experiencing pain due to anxiety.
This is basically what people with #LongCovid are dealing with.

"Teen brains 'aged' during Covid lockdowns, new research suggests"
I know it is difficult to accept the reality, but let's try together: accelerated cortical thinning of teen brains (and anyone else) is caused by a direct viral infection in the brain, not lockdowns. #NeuroCovid
Teen girls were more adversely affected by the pandemic lockdown than teen boys, with girls’ brains aging more than three times as much, a UW study found. st.news/47Daywz

“Young, healthy individuals with mild cases had objective cognitive deficits at 1-year that they did not perceive.”
People keep on insisting it’s just a mild cold… And research keeps on coming out showing it is definitely not. 🤦🏽♂️
The denialism is literally killing us…
This week in key Covid publications:
—Young, healthy individuals with mild cases had objective cognitive deficits at 1-year that they did not perceive
—Older, hospitalized adults with severe Covid had an equivalent of 20 years of decline in cognitive performance at 1-year follow-up
—A nasal vaccine (2 doses) blocked infections for at least 3 months and was effective across 10 different variants
—Reinfections increase the risk of #LongCovid
—mRNA shots don't induce long-lived plasma cells, but we don't know if this is true with other vaccine platforms
