Outdoor air helps reduce the chance of passing on respiratory diseases

Speaking louder and breathing harder increases the likelihood of transmission

The level of crowding makes a difference

Supermarkets are not safe during an outbreak

Some of the worst readings I got were in doctors’ offices

Nine observations from carbon dioxide monitoring

Introduction In the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic I learned that we can estimate our level of risk by checking the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air, because when infected people breathe out virus aerosols, they also breathe out CO2. I recently wrote about some limitations on this

okay the thing is we don’t need the tsa. we don’t need ice. we don’t need any of this because the crimes they are alleged to prevent are so rare as to be nonexistent
