We need like a 30 year moratorium on Structure. You can teach the postscript, but not the text. Deciding between fomite or aerosol transmission is a textbook case of kuhn's "normal science" and has nothing to do with revolution as he defined it.https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1373720638947532800 …

In kuhn's scheme, paradigms only shift as part of scientific revolutions, and individuals almost never move from one paradigm to another. People in a paradigm retire or die, they don't change their minds.

Fomite and aerosol transmission are commensurate ideas in kuhn's language. Scientists have arguments about them and come to mutually intelligible conclusions, even if they disagree. For Kuhn, people subscribing to different paradigms can't do that.
