A day at the office, and then ... the train...
Approximately 60% of the seats are occupied.
Such values mean that approximately 3% of the air is 2nd hand air.

"First - do not harm the patient"

(attributed to Hippocrates)

It is just as unacceptable for a patient to contract an airborne viral infection from a physician during a ward round or consultation as it is to contract a blood borne viral infection during surgery.

I feel like I am a character in a dystopian movie. We have a big chance of facing soon a pandemic with a virus that scientists know is highly neuroinvasive. H5Nx viruses like #H5N1 were already found in all the regions in the brain below. Where are the vaccines, bloody hell?!?!

So, vaccines offer important protection, but this is far from ideal. And it lasts only 6 months.
So
- Why aren't we putting more emphasis on mitigation tools that work 365d/365?!
- Why aren't we offering a 2 vaccinations per year?!
