study on COVID-19 in auditoriums found displacement ventilation minimized infection risk, while natural ventilation had highest spread.
Masks, shorter events, and lower occupancy helped reduce risks.
“#CovidIsNotOver This is my 15th semester teaching RN and NP students about Covid 19 pathophysiology. Not a lot has changed except for how much damage we now know the virus causes. It still baffles me that people don’t know it’s airborne, don’t know the risks. 1”
Educational Thread:
“this study investigated the airborne transmission of respiratory diseases in the hospital elevator by comparison to the conference room.”
“The results showed that the infection probability in the elevator with 5 min was higher than that in the conference room with 50 min.”
“Just so people reading this know:
When you have covid, you exhale covid particles into the air. Even with just ordinary breathing.
Those particles can then float on the air for hours.”
“A former senior advisor on SARS has accused the World Health Organisation (WHO) of covering up its own evidence proving the airborne transmission of COVID-19, since the earliest days of the global pandemic. “
“I'm on day 15 COVID + and I NEVER had a fever. Nor did my partner.
@CDC COVID guidelines aren't prevention guides, they're ‘how to stay in a pandemic’ playbook.”
“Professor Beggs' expert statement made clear what we have known for some time: Covid is an airborne virus, capable of lingering in the air for hours and posing a threat particularly to those who are Clinically Vulnerable.
Yet, the response from the former UK government was, at best, wholly inadequate.”
Oops! Looks like Covid IS airborne, folks.
“All pandemic long, scientists brawled over how the virus spreads. Droplets! No, aerosols! At the heart of the fight was a teensy error with huge consequences…”
Scotland ARHAI... "the clear inadequacy of the droplet/airborne dichotomy"
I think they just admitted all they wrote about pandemic transmission was wrong
