As the world reinstates masks in hospitals... I'll reup this. When a UK hospital upgraded staff masks from fluid resistant surgical masks to airtight respirators on Covid-19 wards, staff infections fell a dramatic 100%. That's not a typo. #CovidIsAirborne

My colleague and I stepped out of the office (outside) together yesterday and I took off my mask. "I never get to see your face. I wouldn't even have recognized you without your mask", she said. But angrily. Distressed. What's going on with this? I genuinely don't understand.

@DarylTractor @pamwantspeace A friend works as a retail chain pharmacist. The store was having a big event to launch a new app so staff spent the week prior blowing up hundreds of balloons. All but two of thirty staff got Covid. And they had to take down every balloon and dispose of them as medical waste.

Bonnie Henry denied PCR tests to the public in early spring '20), urged us to visit restaurants and small towns in late spring '20, refused to require masks in HOSPITALS in fall '20, delayed the primary vax in '21, locked up our FREE RATs for a year, and now throttles Paxlovid.

There isn't any confirming research on it, but anecdotally athletic individuals really do seem to be hit hard more often. It's almost its own vulnerability category. I'm so curious as to why or how that might be.

@GovCanHealth Monkeypox lesions are deep-seated and long lasting and can be so painful some cases are hospitalized just for pain relief. The lesions can cause prolonged ulceration, pitted or keloid scars, hyperpigmentation, and if near/in the eyes, blindness.

@1goodtern @ciiaqap Yup. Many people believe that we all need to get Covid to make it go away. This includes people who work in public health or healthcare. It's not just about not needing to avoid infection. It's pro-infection. And it's the theory that current public health policies are based on.

@GovCanHealth It can be fatal but we're not seeing (any?) deaths outside of endemic regions in this outbreak. Early treatment with antivirals is helpful. Vaccination post exposure can reduce symptoms. I guarantee "mild" means something different to public health than it does to the public.

@maosbot I know what you're getting at but I'm not a fan of this comparison. HIV changes itself into DNA and incorporates directly into host cell DNA (so the immune system can never kill it) where it disables the immune system slowly over a decade or more. SARS2 is not able to do that.

@MeetJess @Jennings18Karl It seems more likely that she has a chronic infection than that she has had 9 separate infections in 10 months. It's rare but it happens. And would mean she has an undiagnosed immune deficiency. Testing negative in between doesn't mean it isn't chronic.

@singingsox @quarantinebeat I haven't eaten indoors at any restaurants since 2019. In addition to guarding my own health, I'm consciously boycotting restaurants and businesses that refuse to advocate for or adopt common sense safety precautions.

@maosbot I always say when asked that "I don't want to get sick." Which is the truth. But the question almost always comes from anti-maskers who play down the seriousness of infection to justify their choice, so it WOULD be interesting to say I have Covid to see the reaction. 🤔

If you are looking for surgical respirators to buy at a physical location I was just in @LondonDrugs and saw they are selling Vitacore N95s and N99s. And there were more staff and customers wearing respirators in that store than I have seen anywhere else in my city. Thanks, LD!

@laurieallee Two days closed?? And finishing the day out too! Sounds like they just don't have enough staff to stay open and it's not really a public service.

@Lisa_C_Ford Yes, that might lead to more Long Covid. But athletes also seem (anecdotally) to often be hit hard during the acute infection. Perhaps exercising before they realize/confirm that they are infected? But why would exercise so significantly exacerbate the illness?

@dupuisj @karamcnair @WR_Record “'...it is adapting to us as hosts and becoming less pathogenic,” meaning it can’t spread as easily, [Wilfrid Laurier University virologist and immunologist Stephanie DeWitte-Orr] said.'" Nothing in this statement is accurate. This is VIROLOGIST and IMMUNOLOGIST. WTAF????

@Jazzie654 The red car, of course. For going around the stopped black car. In my region it's is actually illegal to pass like this on the inside. For example, what if there was a child crossing the street in front of the black car?

@oldfshndanne They go together like peanut butter and jam. Even if air quality is improved, masks will still be needed for close contact transmission and where people are vulnerable. For example, air quality is often good on hospital wards but Covid still spreads in hospitals.

👀 BCers!!! COVID isn't managed the same way across the country. Nova Scotia offers PCR tests for the public! NS offers early treatment (e.g. Paxlovid) for the public! NS has mobile public health units offering RATS, PCR tests and immunizations! The BCNDP don't care about you.

This is a Nova Scotia specific tweet. And another opportunity for Nova Scotians to continue to help, support and educate the people most vulnerable to COVID.

@boredmtnester @ejessicajohnson If it was a PCR test then it might be leftover RNA fragments but this is an antigen test. If it has been 18 days since the confirmed end of her last infection then this is highly likely to be a new infection. And that's quite the vivid result, suggesting a high viral load.

@Becca_Roth “This is not the pandemic we were promised” is just such a brilliant understatement!
