“Is there any scenario or situation where someone could produce a droplet without also generating significant amounts of aerosols?”
Professor Clive Beggs - IPC Expert: “No”

Seems a common misconception that if far field transmission isn't a major factor then the transmission mode is not airborne. Inhalation of aerosols at close range is still airborne transmission - just near field rather than far field. This is important to understand. 1/🧵

Droplets always become Aerosols...The droplet invention was PoliticalScience an example of an Oxymoron

@kidneycareuk Nurse of 44 years, and co-leader of an infectious disease study group comprised of 100s of scientists.
Your astoundingly ignorant recommendation to not use masks is frankly at the level of criminal negligence. Meningitis is an airborne pathogen. N95 masks save lives. Fix it, NOW.

@ShaunLintern When covid hit the media went looking for anti-lockdown "experts" and ended up providing mainstream platforms to anti-vaxxers
Just look at what's put out by GB News, TalkTv, Telegraph and Toby Young's Daily Sceptic in regards to vaccines

The report concluded that:
“In future, guidance should assume that ALL plausible routes of transmission are possible until sufficient evidence proves otherwise.”
There are no excuses anymore.
The government MUST NOT make the same mistakes again.
We MUST learn from the past.

12 members of Cardiff University Executive Board received combined total of £3m
Great to see a student-led movement demanding cuts in salaries & expenses at top
Meanwhile, 170 jobs lost, workloads out of control, some staff considered abortion & suicide

The thing for me about AI is that as a “doing school” thing, its use by students definitely situates itself within de Certeau’s concept of a “tactic.”
But that taking up of a societial invitation to use all the AI all the time is not a tactic at all. It’s just hegemony.

People don’t use genAI “because they are stupid.” They largely use it because of power relations, promises, threats, and requirements. And because the work they are being asked to do holds no value for them. But that’s a form of requirement, so what I said previously.

@LazarusLong13 @beverins I don't actually have it.
I know plenty of people in real life who do.
Fingers crossed for the future.

I'm curious - any other LongHauler advocates like myself who do NOT have LongCovid?
(But, my advocacy is born out of self-interest/survival, because I recognize I am advocating also for a possible future me who could have LongCovid.)

The Covid Inquiry Module 3 report published this week made it clear that it is no longer appropriate to rely on the outdated dichotomy between aerosols & droplets.
Where there is droplet transmission, there is also a high probability of aerosol transmission.

During the Covid inquiry, one of the independent expert witnesses was asked:
“Is there any scenario or situation where someone could produce a droplet without ALSO generating significant amounts of aerosols?”
Prof Beggs (expert in infectious disease transmission) replied:
“NO”
