Today at @cranebeachmass my 9-year-old daughter nearly drowned while I was watching her, in full view of two life guard stations, on an uncrowded and overcast day. Drowning doesn’t look like drowning, and I hope a lot of people read this and remember the signs. 🧵

/1 THREAD: I knew this day would come.

While pediatric societies & "hospital organizations" did "science by press release," breathlessly discussing a correlation on a parent survey or releasing a statement about 1 month of admissions in May 2021, I knew we would get REAL DATA.

1/ A sad anniversary: 1 year since one of the worst errors in the history of Public Health

SARS-CoV-2 is mostly transmitted through the air

But @WHO said, just a year ago, "FACT: IT IS NOT AIRBORNE"

And that saying it was airborne was "misinformation"

Can you think of your unvaccinated child like a “vaccinated grandma” & go anywhere you want on vacation this summer? Um, no. That’s a hard no in response to faulty & thoughtless reasoning that dismisses reality—and public health. https://t.co/Jd7o9loIzh

The sociopathic game the Right plays w/the gun issue:

1. Republicans sell congressional inaction to the gun lobby, and instead offer hollow thoughts/prayers to murder victims' families

2. When sane members of society accurately point out the Right's corrupt cowardice... 2/

“I can disagree with Bernie Sanders on 57 issues… But you know what he's not? He's not un-American. Donald Trump is fundamentally un-American,” says the Lincoln Project’s Rick Wilson, media consultant and ad maker for Republicans like Giuliani and Rubio. https://t.co/CO5QLAPTeL

I'm reading this article right now and I'm pretty glad I have a drink in hand because good God this is confirming all worst suspicions.

REPORT: Virus is stable in air: once airborne, SARS-CoV-2 retains ability to infect for at least 16 hrs

It's hardier in aerosols than SARS-1 or MERS

This helps explain why airborne route could be major culprit

Wear masks, distance, ventilate buildings

Communicating risk and ways to reduce harm is so important right now - it was a treat to work with Drs. @ZekeEmanuel @DrPhillipsMD @COVID19Consult on a way to approach activities & things to consider. Addressing opportunities for improvement can help guide change
