    Some people are using the US rowers story to say outdoor activities are not Covid-safe. The rowers were all infected by their physical therapist, who had prolonged, close, indoor contact with "pretty much the whole team" in his sessionshttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/24/sports/olympics/coronavirus-us-rowing-olympics.html …

        This is *totally* different to spending a day on the beach or in the park, even if using shared bathrooms, shower areas, car parks. Yet these pictures are being used to illustrate stories about the resurgence of the virus. It's hugely misleading and discourages safe behaviour.https://twitter.com/JuliaLMarcus/status/1289984383378546689 …

        The media's misinformation campaign continues on the front page of the Sunday @nytimes. What's driving the latest surge in cases? Apparently people enjoying themselves at spacious beaches and parks and drive-in movies. pic.twitter.com/Ho0UaMj0WD

        A study of 318 outbreak clusters found only one in an outdoor environment https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.04.20053058v1 … Another one found that the risk indoors is approximately 19x the risk outdoors https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.02.28.20029272v2 …

        I've no idea why the long lens brigade want to shame people for getting some fresh air, but there's absolutely no science behind any of their alarmism. Keep enjoying the great outdoors responsibly, folks ☀️🏖🌳⛰

        Imagine understanding that some people die from it and others show no symptoms at all, and pretending not to.

        Oh and that elite athletes are usually immune compromised at the best of times (due to the strain put on their bodies by training).
