    What can we do to reduce airborne #COVID19 risk? Advice is likely to differ while we're uncertain. But some things might help: - Prioritise outdoor restaurant seating 🌞 - Open windows as much as when possible 🪟 - Mask-wearing😷 - Reduce overall inside capacity 👩‍👩‍👧‍👦 19/23

        My government and health authorities still reject the use of masks. They say people wear them wrong and there is no documented effect. So we continue without in Denmark.

        Not sure I agree with their assesment, but who am I to argue against the authorities on that. It just puzzles me.

        Thanks for the link. Are any experts talking about what it will take to get kids back into school in the fall? I am having trouble seeing how re-opening will help that? It feels like it can really only hurt the chances of it happening. But I’d like to see some analysis on it.

        For laymen non scientists and, for all those interested understanding the risks as we proceed into easing lockdowns, one of the best reads on AMT / aerosol transmission👍

        @zeynep @jeremyphoward @trishgreenhalgh Q for you all: In Atlantic article you said “if 80% of ppl wear masks that are 60% effective, easily achievable w/ cloth,” But you cited a study that says the following. What’s the deal? No one is wearing damp masks https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2007800 … pic.twitter.com/hptUKRDtS1
