#SarsCoV2 Het besmettingsrisico voor Covid19, op basis van de rioolwatermetingen, is deze week weer fors gestegen en is niet langer laag, maar matig te noemen. Het gaat sneller dan we vorige week verwachtten.

In de Mediaberichten staat een kritische bespreking van de Parlementaire Enquête Corona met commentaar op de getuigenissen van Ferd Grapperhaus en Carola Schouten.

How very remarkable that COVID-19 [sic: formatting] is why
'we are experiencing high demand',
while also
justifying no health restrictions anywhere because
'the pandemic is over' [sic].So remarkable, in fact, that _upon it, I'm right now remarking!_

Important for viewers of the recent #Fauci hearings...
"#COVID ’s #Origins: what we do and don’t know"
Main points...
"Hypothesis one: animals infected with SARS-CoV-2 passed the virus to humans
Most of the peer-reviewed scientific evidence supports this hypothesis.""Hypothesis two: SARS-CoV-2 was introduced into China’s animal markets from overseas through imported goods. In April last year, the Chinese government endorsed this route as the most likely source of SARS-CoV-2. But almost six years on from the start of the pandemic, we conclude that the available scientific evidence does not support this hypothesis."
"Hypothesis three: SARS-CoV-2 originated from an accidental lab-related event. Much of the information needed to assess this hypothesis has not been made available to the WHO or SAGO."
"Hypothesis four: SARS-CoV-2 originated from the deliberate manipulation of a virus in a lab. We did not find evidence to suggest that SARS-CoV-2 resulting from experimental manipulation was a more likely scenario than it emerging from naturally occurring mutations or recombination events."
Bottom Line: "Overall, perhaps the most important message to emerge from SAGO’s first term is that only rigorous scientific research, not conjecture or political opinion, will help to solve the mystery of where a virus estimated to have killed more than 20 million people by the end of 2022, and which cost the global economy up to $16 trillion, came from. If the world truly wants answers, it must deliver the information and data that make rigorous scientific research possible."
In other words... it is IMPOSSIBLE to say with certainty where/when #COIVD started. IMO, anyone who speaks with certainty is uninformed (most of us) or lying (#GOP #senators) at the hearing.

🙌 The Tyee has done amazingly well with this piece. And again, this is NOT a historic roundup - COVID-19 has ongoing community transmission and is impacting people's lives and health, today, right now.
People are tired of the COVID pandemic. There is a desire to move on. But even today, as we write this, there continue to be outbreaks in hospitals and long-term care facilities in Alberta and elsewhere in North America.

And the need for airborne protection, now, is not hypothetical, it's not in the past. it's now:
In Canada, government data shows that in the week ending March 8, 2026, 34 per cent of COVID patients in hospital acquired the virus while in hospital.
And yes, there is enough science to place the blame squarely on insufficient airborne protection for those people:
How many either communicated the COVID virus to a poorly protected health-care worker or received the virus from a health-care worker who was left without adequate defences, such as properly filtered air or an N95 mask, to ward off the virus? We know, because studies have shown that respirator masks are better than other medical masks at preventing an infected person from infecting someone else.

Now, technically it's true that
It’s difficult to know why the word “airborne” is avoided so consistently, but the impact is clear: without that word, occupational health and safety requirements can be evaded.
but ;lobbying is the reason for almost every decision that hurts all of Canadian citizens and the Canadian economy and Canadian international strength, so personally I think I only need one guess

And the Public Health Agency of Canada has been outright misleading us for years:
So how is it still possible that the Canadian OHS laws don’t apply, requiring the appropriate PPE for airborne spread?
PHAC, to this day, has never used the word “airborne.” It’s merely implied
Now, they still technically advised safe behaviour:
For years, the advice to the public was to wear the “best made, best fitting mask,” terminology that only describes a respirator-style N95 mask, essential for mitigating airborne transmission
But by not outright admitting the actual threat, they let Average Canadian, and Average Canadian Healthcare Worker keep falsely thinking that baggy blues are effective protection.

Protection means N95s or better :n95: and not baggy blues
medical masks were never designed as respiratory PPE
while
Respirator masks, which are explicitly referred to in OHS legislation as the appropriate PPE for airborne hazards, are designed specifically to prevent inhalation of threats like asbestos or COVID-19
