UPDATE: Over the last month, some hospitals in NY, IL, MA, NJ, CT, and CA have reinstated their mask mandates due to the rise in COVID-19 cases.

Hospitals in NC and WA say they are also considering reinstating their mask requirements.

Keep speaking up!

We need new, enforceable indoor air quality rules for every workplace in America.

I don't know how many COVID waves it's going to take before we accept:

1) Vaccines alone won't end this crisis.

2) Mass infection is a recipe for long COVID, death, and suffering.

We know COVID is airborne. We know what airborne infection control looks like. But we’re so committed to the “back to normal” delusion, we’re refusing to implement it in hospitals - and killing patients

Read my latest on Substack:

thegauntlet.substack.com/p/hospitals-...
Hospitals are killing patients because they don't feel like doing infection control
We now know COVID is fully airborne. We also know how to control airborne disease. So why are vulnerable people still dying of hospital-acquired COVID?

Research shows that when temperature forecasts are more accurate , many lives are saved because more people take preventative action. Similar research shows the same for infectious diseases. It's reckless that governments are hiding the data instead of making more people aware.

Skype a Scientist is a wonderful program that matches scientists with classrooms. If you are or if you know a teacher, a librarian, or anyone who could benefit from this great (and free!) program, please sign up here and spread the word: https://www.skypeascientist.com/sign-up.html

🩺 🧪
The collapse of twitter has made it much harder to publicize Skype a Scientist.

Very open to any ideas on how to get the word out to teachers about our program.

It has to be either free or very low-cost (twitter collapsing has also made fundraising harder lolololol).
