      Just out in @ScienceMagazine: A review of airborne transmission of respiratory viruses. We were overdue for a paradigm shift in our understanding of transmission mechanisms of all respiratory viruses. (Disclosure: I'm a co-author but check out that team). http://science.sciencemag.org/content/373/6558/eabd9149.full …pic.twitter.com/0oFl9CZ9fq

      Obviously, I started writing about airborne transmission because of this pandemic. I've learned a remarkable amount from the amazing group of scientists who work on this, but also on my own topics like causal inference, sociology of knowledge and the data/conclusion/policy cycle.

          The article has amazing amount of scientific detail with many implications on many aspects of respiratory disease. But, when this history is written, I think it will be clear that *just the epidemiological data* was screaming substantial airborne component by March/April of 2020.

          I love this work and the collaboration!! Unbelievably informative. The sociology of where transmission is most likely and how environments can impact that is clearly fascinating and important too - for covid and hopefully for improving life beyond it as well!
