A new study shows that air cleaners can reduce up to 98,1 % of viral load in the air of a #COVID patient's room with confirmed positive airborne viral RNA. Rooms with HEPA ventilation had zero virus detected. 👏 #CleantheAir in hospitals and schools!👏 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

“This comprehensive meta-analysis indicates that patients with active cancer with SARS-CoV-2 have a higher risk of mortality and hospitalisation than those without cancer.” There is NO excuse to be unmasked around cancer patients. And, you can’t tell who has cancer just by looking at them. Ergo…😷

Given the rise of Measles (an airborne virus) outbreaks in Canada we should absolutely have N95 mask requirements in schools. This isn't even extreme. Not doing so is extreme at this point

If you don’t wear a mask in public spaces, you’ve become an active participant in disabled & immunocompromised deaths Just because most people are doing it, doesn’t make it right Just because the government gave you permission to stop caring about immunocompromised people, doesn’t mean you should

For herd immunity against measles, 92-95% of the population must be vaccinated. As a live vaccine MMR can’t be given to pts who are immune suppressed (including pts receiving chemo/radiation or immunosuppression) And it’s not effective in newborns. So if you CAN get it, we REALLY need you to.

Ableism is so pervasive & normalized that we have so called leftists attacking disabled people for being unable to protest. Telling them the stakes are “too high to stay home” These same people do nothing to make protests accessible. There can’t be social justice without disability justice

You haven’t “learned to live with COVID” if you don’t understand that layered prevention is the most effective This means wearing a mask in public spaces (KN95 or better), using HEPA filtration / air purifiers, AND getting the most up to date COVID vaccine

If you’re doing political action today, it should be accessible to disability communities. Y’all wearing n95s? Did you arrange transport for folks who can’t drive? Factor in assistive devices when planning? There is no justice without disability justice. No revolution without disabled folks.

“See you at #SBM2025” Actually… no, you won’t. Still no clean air. Still no respirators. Still no serious action from a field that claims to care about equity, health, and science. I’ll be fighting for those things at home—and sharing my science elsewhere. #LongCovid #CleanAirNow #PublicHealth

“Your health is not my responsibility!” Has become the go to phrase for people who refuse to take any mitigation measures against the spread of Covid. They fail to understand that personal choice ends when your decision impacts MY health. “You do you” doesn’t work when we all share the air.

New Zealand: Too many catching COVID-19 in hospital, experts say - but precautions being rolled back. "Australian data suggests 10-15% of COVID deaths are from hospital-acquired infections, representing hundreds of people. Avoidable infection and death are also costly to the health system."

Almost every measles outbreak in the US & Canada involves an exposure in a healthcare setting. This is why we need mandatory masks in healthcare. It helps protect the babies who are too young to be vaccinated, those with immune issues who’s systems don’t respond to the vaccine AND the unvaccinated

Too bad we lacked public health that would have informed parents about how to protect their children. Currently children continue getting COVID yearly if not more frequently. Mask your child & push for clean air in schools as well as vaccinate.

It is utterly unbearable that we are FIVE YEARS into the pandemic and we still don’t have clean air in schools. Canadian provincial governments and the Federal government aren’t even clearly stating and promoting that we NEED clean air in schools. 5 years in and all pretend it’s not airborne, still.

Another measles case in Ontario, with four public exposures. A Costco, and three healthcare facilities. Why are so many of these kids going to multiple healthcare facilities before the measles is caught? Is it being missed? Are they leaving before being seen? Masks in healthcare now!
