Main message of the new book ‘No More Pandemics’: “If all indoor spaces where people gather are consistently supplied with fresh air through ventilation (<1000 ppm CO2), respiratory infections will come to an end and disappear in any region.” 👉Keep fighting for #SafeIndoorAir!

Oct. 2019, @DrMikeRyan about the pandemic exercise with an *airborne coronavirus*: “addresses real & critical threats.” “respiratory pathogens are often transmitted by asymptomatic persons. They spread fast.” Then why @WHO’s airborne denial when the exercise became a reality?
Airborne pathogens spread like smoke. Healthy indoor air is a human right. #COVIDisAirborne

Airborne means floating infectious aerosol. #COVIDisAirborne
When I say #DropletDogmaKills it’s because the word “droplet” is defined erroneously in IPAC field. The actual science underpinning its definition is *wrong*. Of course it’s not the word itself. It’s the *error* in the reasoning.
We built schools, community centres, day care, aged care, and even our own home wrong.
We then built hospitals wrong, all over the world. Very expensive and dangerous semantics leaving every country open to airborne disease attack.
We called it droplet and pretended they actually behaved like ballistic projectiles.
At the end of the day, if we had called it droplet, but then recognised these droplets float and therefore put in the correct mitigations of respirators and clean air… we might have got away with it. But we didn’t.
And physics doesn’t care what we call it…
You see, the problem is, you can change how you use a word across different disciplines, but if you can’t explain why you did that satisfactorily… Well… then you are just ignoring inconvenient findings.
They can, and did, and got it wrong, and people died. #DropletDogmaKills

@Chikwe_I @WHO @rki_de @BMG_Bund @BNITM_de @AuswaertigesAmt @DrMikeRyan @OWMorgan @geoffreynamara @GermanyUNGeneva Why aren't you all wearing masks or respirators indoors to help stop further spread of Covid19 and other airborne diseases? Many of you seem poorly trained in correct infection control practice.
@Chikwe_I @WHO @rki_de @BMG_Bund @BNITM_de @AuswaertigesAmt @DrMikeRyan @OWMorgan @geoffreynamara @GermanyUNGeneva @DrTedros has been a dismal and incompetent leader during the Covid19 pandemic. He doesn't even understand what the word "airborne" means, so inadequate is his training and his unwillingness to learn from engineering experts about airborne transmission of infectious diseases.
