People would voluntarily wear masks if bioaerosols were visible to the naked eye, like in this video.
When smog was visible to the naked eye in China, everyone knew how harmful it was—you couldn’t see far into the distance. Where I live now, the air still has 40+ μg/m3 of pollution for most of the year, but it’s no longer visible to the naked eye. So people have stopped talking about smog.

Clean indoor air is becoming policy around the world: CO₂ limits in classrooms, ventilation checks in schools, masking rules in hospitals. But rules on paper don’t always mean clean air in practice.
Our new tracker shows efforts worldwide, both where the rule stands and whether anything is actually happening. Each one comes with practical steps: who to contact, what to ask and what others have done.

It's there on Amazon in 2 formats - will sort out the e-book presently.
It's a different way of looking at transmission - source to infection pathways

An entire BBC article about cold and flu symptoms, OTC treatments /costs and medical advice if suffering symptoms.
Yet not a single mention of COVID.
It's in high circulation.
How is such an omission even remotely conceivable if not deliberate?

This is what the UK needs urgently. An assessment of what this infection and its consequences does and is doing now. From the assessment, policies to prevent community & hospital transmission should be determined.

Heating on. Windows shut. What's building up?
Cooking fumes and candle smoke can linger when ventilation drops.
Use your extractor, keep vents clear and filter airborne particles.
Cosy shouldn't mean stuffy.

As COVID-19 continues to circulate, UK health experts are reminding the public that masks remain an important tool for reducing respiratory virus transmission.
Well-fitting respirators, such as N95s and FFP2s, help filter airborne particles and reduce exposure, particularly in crowded or poorly ventilated indoor spaces.
Masking remains a practical way to protect yourself and others.

What is point of @covidinquiryuk reports if dpts including marketing & PR, forego an opportunity to promote correct masks: FFP2 FFP3, N95?
Reducing airborne infections using mitigations a benefit reducing demand on NHS.

Today, the Prime Minister and @YvetteCooperMP met staff preparing for winter at Watford General Hospital.
Our new £40 million programme will help ease pressure during winter, supporting GPs to keep vulnerable people well at home, and reducing preventable hospital admissions.

💨 Clean indoor air saves lives.
Ventilation and HEPA filtration can reduce airborne infection risks.
Why aren’t these measures a greater priority in UK infection prevention guidance?

The PCR positivity map is out, and whilst national positivity plateaus in England, it's risen sharply in Scotland.
England is on 9.14% adjusted; Scotland is on 7.69%.

So its okay to send a child to school with flu symptoms to spread it around. They then pass it on to vulnerable members of family, who end up in hospital. Great way of reducing the pressure on the NHS.

😷 Surgical masks are NOT respirators.
So why does UK infection prevention guidance still recommend surgical masks for some Covid-19 exposures?
Our new briefing challenges this approach.
