Such widespread misinformation—not distinguishing the much safer outdoors from the highest risk environments: poorly-ventilated indoors and explaining why—has a great cost because if people don't know how to keep themselves safer, they cannot keep themselves safer. Tragic.

Guess I'll be updating this thread for the next decade. LA opening restaurants etc., so let's put a picture of a vast beach that looks just about the safest place. Worse, this is LA, can't even make up some story about travel to the beach causing the risk.https://twitter.com/jamesbont/status/1377400019062452225?s=20 …

Belgian police breaking up young people hanging out at... a park. A big, vast park. We’re more than a year in. We know where transmission primarily occurs and how. (Young ones are being encouraged to hang out indoors, I guess, where they won’t risk being trampled by horses.)https://twitter.com/RichardHanania/status/1378455984549425153 …

For those wondering how incorrect guidelines still block better pandemic mitigations: Despite Dr. Wen's heroic attempt here to divert, the incorrect description (basically copied from guidelines) helps drive the beach panic. If that were true, yeah indoor/outdoor would be same.pic.twitter.com/NAp4dVtgIV

Would you say the indoor vs outdoor risk of spreading is like 100:1?

It's not just socializing, it's also a show of solidarity with the houseless people living in those parks against this absurd government cruelty:https://twitter.com/ESN_TO/status/1375439562609197066?s=19 …

What’s worse is the event was to show support for the community being kicked out after the police started taking away handmade shelters by a man who just wants to help keep people sheltered in the coldhttps://twitter.com/TorTinyShelters/status/1375461822472536073 …

They are outdoors and most of them are masked. I cannot for the life of me understand the recreation-shaming aimed at people who are not behaving “badly.”
