OUR NEW BMJ editorial: Andes virus should reset WHO’s default approach to airborne risk. 🧵 1/ For severe pathogens with person-to-person transmission, the starting point should be precautionary airborne protections — not waiting for definitive proof after spread occurs. www.bmj.com/content/393/...

Hopefully as more researchers are recognized for their excellent work on aerosol transmission, the findings will be used to inform how we protect each other from pathogens. Also, my first reaction to this was "A BASSOON!!!"

Short answer: Healthcare professionals are human too, and institutions vary in their policies. That doesn’t change the science behind airborne transmission or the benefit of masking.
A graphic with a white background. At the top are six colored dots (pink, red, green, light green, blue, and navy), a blue button labeled “WHY MASK?”, and the website logo “whn.global” in the top right. Centered on the page is bold black and red text that reads:

“MY DOCTOR DOESN’T WEAR A MASK. WHY SHOULD I?”

Detailed Explanation: Ideally, doctors and healthcare workers should be at the forefront of applying new knowledge about how respiratory diseases spread—just like when handwashing became standard practice in medicine, despite resistance at first.

What if COVID doesn't just make sick, but makes us easier to infect? Experts say the virus is chipping away at our immune systems. But some aren’t convinced. I spoke with doctors, scientists, and parents caught in a relentless cycle of illness, and here's what I found:

Is COVID quietly sabotaging our immune systems?
Experts are increasingly coalescing around the view that COVID has weakened our immune systems, leaving us vulnerable to other infections

Doctors spend lots of time doing team huddles in ill-ventilated office spaces. When one team member goes down, they take the rest of the team with them. Whole departments go into crisis lockdown mode as a result.
