In February we launched a new blog series at hypestudies.org. The first post by @giuls1701.bsky.social reflects on how emotionally charged images and social media hype shaped public trust, collective memory, and the reception of scientific communication during the COVID-19 pandemic sl1nk.com/inh0wpa

Why prioritise clean air in schools? To us, the word “inclusion” is key. We often hear comments from schools that kids can still get viruses and germs from other environments / extra curricular activities so it won’t make much difference to viral spread in the school 🤷‍♀️ 🧵 /1

In this image there is a Blast air purifier placed in a school in the background. In the foreground there is some text that reads: "Why prioritise clean air in schools?", "[...] [...] it should be a priority for schools to make the one environment children are mandated to attend as safe as possible. Only then can the space be a truly inclusive one."

Every time you’re infected with Covid, whether you’re vaccinated or not, your risk of long covid rises. There is no cure for long covid and most people w/ long covid never recover. Wear a mask, because vaccines don’t prevent long covid in any meaningful way and it can and will destroy ur life.

Smart Air UK welcomes requests from those with limited funds and tries to match them with donors willing to donate air purifiers (it can be businesses, but also artists/performers interested in donating) Every repost helps finding a donor! @jerilryan.bsky.social @fansmaskup.bsky.social

- it's cheaper to make one in the USA (as far as I know!). In terms of efficiency, it largely depends on the type of filters and fans you pick for the CR box, so I imagine that some will have the potential to perform better and some about the same? Some venues however, won't let DIY in! 2/2

CR boxes are great, and I made a tiny one myself this summer when I was in my home country! Before I joined Smart Air, I know they collaborated early on in the pandemic on DIY projects too. One of the issues I found in the EU and UK was with sourcing material at a lower price, for some reason - 1/2

Trekkies love clean air! My dear friend Robert, who's not on here yet but makes adorable 3D mini prints, designed, printed, and painted this portable HEPA filter (it's a QT3). He painted the Borgs too! He's not sure how you'd feel about the Borg 👀, but wanted to say hi to @jerilryan.bsky.social 🖖🏻

Thank you for reposting this, @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com! I hope you're feeling better! If you ever need HEPA filters in the UK I can facilitate through Smart Air (as I mentioned in the article) Artists are keeping us going through the darkest days of this pandemic, we all want you to be safe!

It's refreshing to hear public figures speak up in favour of masks! Thank you!! And if you ever need HEPA filters in the UK I can personally help through Smart Air (as I mentioned in the article) 💕 Artists are keeping us going through the darkest days of this pandemic, we all want you to be safe!

Giulia Villanucci @giuls1701.bsky.social · 03/10/2023

Neil, any chance you'd consider using (or asking the venues to use) Hepa filters/air purifiers? At least here in the UK I could help set that up with my work at Smart Air UK. Purifiers only are not as safe as having everyone wear a mask but it'd help mitigate risk!
