      Dr Anthony Fauci explains scientists have got it wrong for many years, that aerosolised particles can linger in the air much longer than previously thought, and singing and speaking play a significant role in transmission. How long will it take the UK government to catch up?pic.twitter.com/L8b6AvwD0A

      I was amazed when @zeynep’s article was brought to Fauci’s attention and reportedly he agreed to read it. Above all, science is the search for new understanding.https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/07/why-arent-we-talking-more-about-airborne-transmission/614737/ …

      Fauci is indeed clear on the science—and the unknowns. We really need guidelines ASAP. I get so many basic questions from ordinary people, and the answers should come from our public health authorities.

          True. I had to point to a specific Arizona State guideline to persuade our office from returning to work earlier this summer.

          Would you say it’s wise for a government to send 10.8 million kids back to school to mix with 500k teachers & 000s of staff, with no social distancing or masks when there’s widespread community transmission and exponential growth in cases?https://twitter.com/adamhamdy/status/1304159961707089920 …

          1. I hope Professor Marr won’t object to me sharing some of her excellent work, but the UK has just sent 10.8 million students, 500k teachers & tens of thousands of staff back to school with normal class sizes, no masks & no social distancing @linseymarr pic.twitter.com/mg8Tla5X7R

          Wow! is that really true? UK is really that far behind in understanding aerosol transmission? This will be an unfortunate case study for years to come... lest we forget like we did with the Pandemic of 1918https://twitter.com/citlanx/status/1263851084990214144 …

          Mr. Eldredge @citlanx
          Something to be said about fresh air. Did we learn anything from 1918? I really enjoyed reading this piece. It seems like we should have been light-years ahead of 1918. But we are not.

          Next is to educate people who work/visit indoor public spaces as to importance of purchasing masks w/ higher filtration efficiency & encourage people to use filters in cloth masks for the fall/winter and flu season.
