The world public health system is built on lies and coercion. Public health worker union contracts in western nations as well as some airline worker unions say hospital systems or airlines cannot make their workers do their job without adequate airborne pathogen PPE in the event there is an airborne pathogen. So the WHO and CDC will never, ever, declare a pathogen anything beyond droplet because of the moneyed interests involved. (Insert airlines, hospital administrators, China, Open Borders immigration, etc, etc, special interests here) They absolutely need to coerce HCW to throw their lives on the bonfire of epidemics to make their corrupt so-called "Public health" system work while maintaining their corruption based income streams. Their lies here regards airborne versus droplet and utter resistance to need for Western public's to wear masks at all are all about maintaining that coercive power and income. This is something I ran across that covers the airborne pathogen reality that is COVID-19. The CDC would rather us all die than admit to the scientific reality of the following: ------- The social distance guidelines of 6 feet only protects you from droplets exhaled by normal breathing, which mostly fall to the ground or disperse within 6 feet. It does nothing to protect you from coughs or sneezes, nor from the fact that droplets can hang in the air for a minimum of 10 minutes (per MIT study years ago). Basically: Normal breathing sends droplets outwards for a distance of up to 1.82 meters (6~ feet) A cough sends droplets out at 10 meters per second, for a distance up to 6 meters (approx 18 feet). A sneeze sends droplets out at 50 meters per second for a distance of up to 10 meters (approx 30 feet). As for airborne transmission -- in normal circumstances, the experts are correct; COVID-19 (and others) is not airborne. However, under special circumstances, COVID-19 can go mildly airborne. (Links and quotes from study below). "Special Circumstances" can be defined as "places where a COVID-19 infectee stayed for an extended period of time"; which basically are: Sleeping areas in homes/apartments Hospital Rooms Airliners with COVID-19 infected Cruise ships with COVID-19 infected Aircraft Carriers with COVID-19 infected etc. Basically, when entering those environments, you have to assume you're entering a Level 3 or 4 Biohazard area and wear a tyvek suit, full face mask respirator, and gloves at a minimum. Decontamination should be done immediately after exiting the area (jump into shower in full gear, let shower run for a few minutes). Also, for those environments, decontamination of surfaces has to be done to a much higher standard than everyday environments. For microbial environments, the following standards are used: 1 log reduction = 90% reduction 2 log reduction = 99% reduction 3 log reduction = 99.9% reduction 4 log reduction = 99.99% reduction 5 log reduction = 99.999% reduction 6 log reduction = 99.9999% reduction For common Ethanol/Alcohol (70%); wiping the surface down and it staying wet for a few seconds has a reduction of about 3 to 4 log (99.9% to 99.99%). This is good enough for general decontamination. However, if you have a confirmed COVID-19 patient, everything in there has to be done to a higher standard -- to go from about 4.0 log₁₀ to > 5.9 log₁₀ with Ethanol/Alcohol (70%), the surface has to be wet for 30~ seconds. For bleach (Sodium Hypochlorate) - if you have a 0.21% (2100 ppm concentration) solution, you achieve > 4.0 log₁₀ after 30 seconds of surface wetting. Per (https://www.publichealthontario.ca/en/health-topics/environmental-occupational-health/water-quality/chlorine-dilution-calculator) To achieve 2100 ppm with household (5.25% bleach), you need to dilute at a ratio of 1:23 or, 1 part of bleach for 22 parts of water. You may reduce this to 1 part bleach for 20 parts of water if you want a slightly stronger concentration. If you want to ultra-sanitize, you'll need 5000 ppm; and to get this with common 5.25% bleach, you'll need to get a 1:9 ratio, or 1 parts bleach to 8 parts water.

Even the casual observer knew it was airborne/aerosolized as far back as January.
To become infected all one must do is breath the same air as an infected person in ANY closed space.
It spreads more like measles than flu.

There was a rather racist article in the Lancet the other day. According to the article, it’s racist for westerners not to wear masks because it’s not polite (subservient) to Asians (Chinese) who do. (of course, Asians wear masks because of pollution, not really to prevent others from becoming sick)
Since that article, tho, the new topic is to wear or not to wear.
But what’s pretty funny is, a) there are no masks for Americans to wear anyway, since all supplies are going to hospitals, who don’t have enough and, b) we’re all in quarantine in our homes and nobody’s going out in public anyway!
So why are we even having this conversation about masks at all right now, other than it’s worryfluff material for the MSM?
