Following her recent letter, CATA has written to the Minister respectfully advising her that, as per her predecessor (Gwynne), she’s been badly advised.
One can only speculate whether by DHSC, UK-HSA or the NHS/IPC “droplet, not airborne” dogmatists.

No, SARS-CoV-2 isn’t a little bit airborne. It’s not “situationally” airborne. It’s an AIRBORNE VIRUS, spreads via the air. I’m granting an amnesty on people who said (5y ago) that it wasn’t. I won’t say I told you so if you finally acknowledge the evidence. Let’s just get this right and move on.

In the past year in my social and work circles I’ve had: at least 20% of work colleagues constantly sick with one thing or another; 31 year old friend in hospital with suspected pulmonary embolism; friend in her 50’s with ‘suspected internal bleeding’; friend in 60’s with pneumonia TWICE ⬇️
