I don't need a test, but I was curious to see the state of things, so I clicked on the "where to get tested for COVID-19" link from a public health website. I half expected it to be a broken link - but instead it took me to an Ontario Government site (screenshot attached).

It's still 🤯 that there are "eligibility requirements" to TEST to see if you have a highly contagious and damaging airborne disease.

Imagine if there were "eligibility requirements" to test for cancer?

*nods* Definitely a big improvement in the past few hours. Most of today it has been extremely visually hazy in #yegne and definitely toxic for the lungs (backeduo by air monitor numbers).

Time to #ventilate! 😀

Do you even #ventilate, bro? This could be in your nursing home or apartment building where you live. Photo from Multifamily Ventilation Retrofit Strategies, by Ueno, Lstiburek, Bergey. 2012. Link (PDF): https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy13osti/56253.pdf

By "efficacy" you mean helps keep you out of the hospital, isn't that why there is constantly new boosters?

By "efficacy" you mean stops infection and transmission, there is yet to be one more than ~30%.

"Here’s a handy explainer video about how/why SARS-CoV-2 loses infectivity in the air, and how we can use that information to limit transmission."

Spoiler: Exhaled breaths increase the acid content in the air, acidity keeps the virus infectious longer. All the more important to ventilate.

Ventilation works! I’m so used to have my house windows open that when I go other places and the windows aren’t open, it looks weird!
