The CSA in Canada put forth a recommendation that respirators be used in healthcare to prevent COVID and other airborne diseases. It’s a recommendation that would save lives. Yet managers of hospital infection control programs are fighting back on it. Disgusting.

This list—predominantly managers of hospital infection control programs—are undermining revisions to a Canadian standard for workplace respirator personal protective equipment (PPE) that would improve safety grounded in science and engineering. /1

I'm fed up with hearing Government responses saying that air filters are no substitute for ventilation whilst providing neither good ventilation nor air filters to school classrooms. I say in reply: Lies are no substitute for the truth. Ineptitude is no substitute for knowledge.

A lot of news from Covid inquiry blaming lockdown for people not being able to see relatives in care settings. The truth is; airborne transmission was covered up & Gov't hadn't properly prepared for an airborne pandemic. People could have done this entirely safely with the right mitigations. 1/2

Still not wrong, just early. Ignoring Covid infections is a giant mistake. We should be preventing them. Long Covid is very real & very serious and still a significant risk to all. The pandemic is continuing whether you ignore it or not. It's not lockdowns; it's infections. FAFO.

I did a bit more digging about a recent BBC news article about how installing air quality monitors had a 'dramatic' effect on health. It is an initiative by @sthelenscouncil (X a/c) and @WarringtonBC (X a/c) called the Healthy Air for Healthy Lungs project. So what's it all about?... 1/thread

'Dramatic' effect of air quality monitors "It's clearly having a dramatic & positive impact on the health of young children, with reduced need for inhalers and fewer hospital visits recorded by parents and guardians." Clean air indoors benefits everyone. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is a very important thread. The most difficult job is getting air filters Into school. It is a huge mistake then to fail to select the best - highest CADR, quietest, value for £, no added UV, ionisation etc It leads to poor air cleaning results and undermines the evidence base..

I wish folk could see the significance of this post. A UK Council invested in air filters for schools but made a really terrible choice of machine. Default auto mode, noisy, big, power hungry, useless added tech; zero plus points. Upshot; they're unlikely to provide much protection against Covid. 1/

Since autumn last year, the UK has experienced successive waves of airborne respiratory viruses, which have made tens of millions of people sick. That's because indoor air is laden with viruses because there aren't standards in place to require indoor air to be virus free.
