For my friends and fellow nutmeggers from #Connecticut -- as promised, I've finally set up https://nutmeg.social ! Registration is on an approval-only basis for now while I kick the tires but feel free to create an account and I'll be letting folks in.
Of course anyone is welcome, especially those around #NewEngland 😄
I'll be migrating this account over shortly, see you there!
Finally expecting some snow in #Connecticut this weekend, hopefully a preview of things to come! Apparently we’re expecting lots of snowfall once winter officially starts https://www.ctinsider.com/weather/article/new-england-2022-winter-accuweather-17486741.php
Can’t wait for snowmen, snowball fights, and hot cocoa with my daughter—some of the best childhood memories you can make ☃️
And now, This!
This explains why mask wearers didn't get as sick.
"What we found is that when you're exposed to cold air, the temperature in your nose can drop by as much as 9 degrees Fahrenheit. And that's enough to essentially knock out all three of those immune advantages that the nose has," Bleier said.
"Not only do masks protect you from the direct inhalation of viruses, but it's also like wearing a sweater on your nose," he said."
