It was only in December of 2020 the WHO guidelines got updated to wear masks indoors at all times—before they only said masks only if one couldn't be separated by three feet. These things matter so much because billions of people are live and work according to these guidelines.

Yes, viruses like to take breaks, too, especially if people are eating or drinking! (Let's ocus on explaining mechanisms properly, including airborne transmission, rather than providing rigid/binary rules & incorrect/incomplete explanations, part zillion). https://twitter.com/Amtrak/status/1356981157754208257 …

While we are at it—and while noting that many experts in countries like Japan (and SK/Taiwan/HK) had airborne-transmission (AND overdispersion AND presymptomatic transmission) nailed by February 2020—here's our own imitable

Went back my July article on ventilation & aerosol transmission that I wrote after listening to the infectious disease experts in Japan & Hong Kong, aerosol experts here like

We may *finally* be at a turning point for aerosols and airborne transmission—not just lip service but real recognition. Few of the Twitter people who've been saying this—and working so hard to be heard—for a year:

There are others, too. The message about aerosols and airborne transmission was dismissed, resisted, attacked despite increasing evidence (again Japan/Hong Kong etc. had this by Feb 2020). When it's written, it will be an interesting and illuminating history of how things fail.

I just saw a new air filter in my lunch room at work (finally!), which is good - but I think I will still go to my car & drive to a park. Curious - what do you think is driving the slow growth in case count lately? Can't be due to vaccines yet, right?https://twitter.com/COVID19Tracking/status/1356752912425259008?s=19 …
