@alleburgers: Bij meer dan 60 deelnemers is het vrijwel zeker dat iemand Covid heeft (de kans dat niemand Covid heeft is bijna nul). (https://alleburgers.nl/2024/01/13/oversterfte-ziekte-en-verspreiding-covid19-2024-01/)

Oversterfte, ziekte en verspreiding Covid19 2024-01 - #AlleBurgers

Actueel risico volgens AlleBurgers 13 januari 2024 Het risico op besmetting en dus Long Covid & invaliditeit is HOOG maar niet meer zo extreem als enkele weken geleden. Rioolwaarde 08-01: 1017, bijna twee keer zo hoog als het moment dat 3G (de QR-code) werd ingevoerd → 36 duizend besmettingen PER DAG → tenminste 3.600 nieuwe… Lees verder Oversterfte, ziekte en verspreiding Covid19 2024-01

The counterintuitive implications of superspreading diseases - Nature Communications

The superspreading that characterized SARS and now COVID-19 can be rapidly quantified; however, its implications for outbreak control were never well understood. Recent studies point to its profound impact on outbreak dynamics and prospects for effective control of a future Disease X. These insights necessitate research into the mechanisms, impact and different modes of superspreading more widely.

💨🚧😷 Respiratory viruses are much more likely to spread indoors than outdoors, but outdoor super-spreading events can still occur if the conditions are right.

A new study describes a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak affecting 131 people at a night market. 🧵

💨🚧😷 This study shows that super-spreading events can occur outside if the conditions are right. It’s probably a good idea to continue to wear a mask outside if the environment is crowded. 💨 🐲 (points made by Dr Zoë Hyde, Epidemiologist & biostatistician. OzSAGE scientific advisory group member.

Analysis of a super-transmission of SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant BA.5.2 in the outdoor night market

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic continues to ravage the world, and mutations of the SARS-CoV-2 continues. The new strain has become more transmissible. The role of aerosol transmission in the pandemic deserves great attention.MethodsIn this observational study, we collected data from market customers and stallholders who had been exposed to the virus in the Qingkou night market on July 31 and were subsequently infected. We analyzed the possible infection zones of secondary cases and aerosol suspension time in ambient air. We described and analyzed the characteristics of the secondary cases and the transmission routes for customers.ResultsThe point source outbreak of COVID-19 in Qingkou night market contained a cluster of 131 secondary cases. In a less-enclosed place like the Qingkou night market, aerosols with BA.5.2 strain released by patients could suspend in ambient air up to 1 h 39 min and still be contagious.ConclusionAerosols with viruses can spread over a relatively long distance and stay in ambient air for a long time in a less enclosed space, but shorter than that under experimental conditions. Therefore, the aerosol suspension time must be considered when identifying and tracing close contact in outbreak investigations.

Clustering is a key element for superspreading events

Commonalities among superspreading events include indoor settings, crowds, exposure durations of 1 hour or more, poor ventilation, vocalization, and lack of proper mask-wearing.

My college kid isn’t allowed to miss class when they’re sick (or even join virtually) or they will be docked “participation points”. Did we learn nothing over the past 2.5 years???? #medmastodon #viruses #superspreading

Aww🥰 I’m glad my #perspective helped🖤

feel like I’m constantly(I’m not, just feels like it)experiencing situations I was #unwholly aware of that might be in a flash,deadly #COVIDisAirborne

Then have to #analyze it, figure out how to avoid it/change #reaction being least #rude

Still #fuming over this care worker who had no concept of personal space & #superspreading everywhere she goes. #YouDoYou is the biggest #publicHealth #failure

#Kirchenmusik ist gerade so weird: Du hoffst, dass du möglichst viele Leute im #Gottesdienst beglücken kannst, aber gleichzeitig, dass so wenige kommen, dass jener (wohlgemerkt bei #2G, #FFP2-Pflicht, Abstand und Lüften) nicht zu einem #Omikron-#Superspreading-Event ausartet.
