    Well, we now know how to stop #airborne #pandemics.

    (#CovidIsAirborne; #FluIsAirborne)

    We stop it with #HEPA filters, #CorsiRosenthalBoxes. And with #N95 / #N99 / #P100 #elastomeric #respirator #masks.

    But right now DOCTORS are blithely mass-infecting patients -- and of course nowhere else is doing anything either -- so our society is basically doing nothing and helping the virus spread.

    We should try doing something.
