Amazing interview with epidemiologist Dr Amanda Kvalsvig about the importance of #CleanAir in schools, why you should protect yourself from Covid-induced brain damage and the unfathomable impact of #LongCovid.

The latest #Covid19 variant (razor blade throat) seems to have increased transmissibility resulting in more people ending up in hospital.

Most #healthcare systems haven’t adopted #cleanair standards or mandatory #respirator use. #Hospital acquired #COVID has a 10% fatality rate

You Can't Always See

Still masking? You know the mandates are gone, right?

Yeah, I know. But I'm immunocompromised. It's just one way I stay safe.

Oh... I didn't think of that. You look totally healthy.

That's the thing. You can't always see who's vulnerable-or who lives with someone who is.

---

Fair point. I guess I assumed we were all moving on.

Some of us never got to move on. But we adapt and every bit of protection helps.

---

Maybe I'll wear one again. No big deal if it helps someone else.

Thanks. That means more than you know.

Self-Consciousness.

"Why don't you wear your influenza mask?"
"I'm afraid I might look funny."
"Suppose you do. Wouldn't you rather introduce a little comedy into your household than subject it to a tragedy?"

The “razor blade throat” Variant of Covid is putting more people in the hospital in China, and has already been detected in New York and other major US cities

“In mainland China, the portion of patients going to ER with COVID more than doubled in the last month — from 7.5% to more than 16%. The portion in hospital for COVID also doubled, to more than 6%”

Vaccines were designed to keep people out of the hospital.

Restricting access to boosters runs the risk of overwhelming the healthcare system.

The public health messaging is confusing. They say this variant doesn’t appear “more severe” while also saying number of people in hospital has doubled.

I fail to see how it can simultaneously be “not more severe” and also be causing a doubling of severe cases.

As always, get your booster if you still can.

Remember that a layered approach works best. Wear a well fitted respirator like an N95, clean & ventilate the air, stay home when sick.
