This is a helpful little article because it says the fomites can still infect you if you touch them within two hours of them being deposited on the surface.

I really hate the title of this article though. Measles didn’t visit Boston. An infected disease spreader knowing they were sick visited Boston and spread the measles.

Also what happens to the people who have to do a 21 day quarantine? How do they brace for that if they’re going to lose their job for not going to work?

“The Boston Public Health Commission reports people not vaccinated against measles who happened to spend any time at the #Westin Seaport (including its restaurants) between 5:30 p.m. this past Saturday and 1:30 p.m. Sunday, the MFA between 1 and 6 p.m. on Sunday  or Logan Terminal C between 5 and 11:15 p.m. on Sunday should immediately check with their healthcare providers - and maybe brace for a 21-day quarantine if it turns out they were themselves infected by a person with measles who was at those places.
On June 8, the person then flew on #JetBlue flight 639 to #Miami on a flight that departed at 9:12pm. BPHC and [the state] DPH are working with the CDC to identify and notify passengers who may have been exposed. As BPHC and DPH collect more information, they will notify the public and individuals directly.”

Measles visits Boston, spends a night in the Seaport, takes in the MFA and flies out from Logan

The Boston Public Health Commission reports people not vaccinated against measles who happened to spend any time at the Westin Seaport (including its restaurants) between 5:30 p.m. this past Saturday and 1:30 p.m. Sunday, the MFA between 1 and 6 p.m. on Sunday  or Logan Terminal C between 5 and 11:15 p.m. on Sunday should immediately check with their healthcare providers - and maybe brace for a 21-day quarantine if it turns out they were themselves infected by a person with measles who was at those places.

Westin Guest Finds Gas Canisters Hidden In Room, Charged $500+ For Removal

A guest at the Westin London City found five gas canisters hidden in his room. When he reported it to the hotel, he was blamed.

I complain about academia a lot and I won’t stop, but as a person who just had to sit through a hotel concierge stone-facedly explaining a hidden “mandatory destination fee” that I might as well use at Starbucks because they’re going to charge me anyway,” I can say that my values obviously would not have aligned with 99% of corporations and their love of little bullshit microscams. #westin #marriott
Im #Westin nichts Neues: Nach dem #Antisemitismus-Vorwurf von @GilOfarim reagierten viele Akteure eher unbeholfen. Wenn Hotelbanner neben #Israel-Flaggen gehisst werden, dann ist das nett gemeint – ignoriert aber die Tragweite des Problems, meint @samelou: https://bit.ly/3Bn0KG0

Looking for #PyOhio at the #Westin in #Cleveland #Ohio? Look for our rocking sign and join us on the 6th Floor!

This piece of art next to our is called "The Guitar that Rock Built" and was made by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame staff members

The mood outside of the Westin is festive. Speeches, sign waving and of course huge cheers anytime a protester gets thrown out for interruprying Nancy.

🖤 ✊🏿 🇵🇸

Reg'd (individual, since #unemployed) and book'd (the #Westin) for #PyConUS (@pycon) ✌️✨

Tentative schedule:

- Weds the 15th: drive over (it's an ~8h drive when you include I/O interrupts) 🚙⚡💨
- Thurs: get acclimated / do some touristing (never been!) 🌇🏗️🌉
- Fri-Sun: some sort of nerd convention? 🐍✨
- Mon the 20th: drive home (no in-person sprints; /may/ sprint online Tue-Fri tho!) 💨⚡🚙

Auch wenn die Sache Gil Ofarim / The Westin Leipzig ein 'false positive' ist, haben wir dennoch ein gehöriges Naziproblem, und wenn wir das weiterhin nicht angehen, werden wir unser braunes Wunder erleben.
