Giving an interview while casually doing a #pluslife pool test was definitely on my 2025 wish list :) x.com/TogetherWeMa...

AdventsTanz is coming up soon! Non-dancers are warmly encouraged to come hang out with us. There will be plenty of opportunities to chat and mingle even if you don't want to participate in the class. Remember to dress warmly - we will be waiting outside while #pluslife is done.

Announcing Safe Hour Swing 2! "AdventsTanz" on 30 November The class is designed for people who are new to dancing swing and is intended to allow participation whilst seated or standing. Masks, pluslife, HEPAs as always. Sign up at luma.com/6wqc2zy1 #maskup #teamvorsicht

Cheap detection of viruses in the air would be amazing www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Anyone wanna trade PEM for some safe fun dancing swing?

BA.3.2.* variant making a solid debut in this week's wastewater for Perth - looks to be at around 15%. Quite impressive for a debutant.

This NYC event by www.positivedeviance.co looks so awesome! So wish I was there - 50 people with masks, hepas/uvc and great music. www.youtube.com/live/nJ9va7Z... Hopefully soon it will become another global trend coming out of NYC. :)

Alps are nice. :)

Our next event in August

How does it translate into actual job performance? Being unable to remember what happened in yesterday's meeting seems like an obvious one.

An event for kids to meet other kids in a Covid Safe environment. And for parents to meet each other too. We will play games and socialise either in outdoor playground or in a large indoor venue, depending on the weather. lu.ma/1zze772h

We made great new friends last time—it was a big success! Let's do it again on Saturday 7 June. Masks, #pluslife tests, and HEPA filters included. lu.ma/j01j6y1c #maskup #teamvorsicht #inpersonjoy #covidisntover

Amazing manifesto. Read it about 5 times - totally get it!

“Death in Hamburg” by Sir Richard J Evans. A book written in 1987 for our COVID age. The title is a reference to Thomas Mann's novella "Death in Venice", also set in a cholera epidemic. This is a review of one of the best books I've ever read. 5/5 stars. 🧵 www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/294784...

Awesome #longcovid demo by #berlinbuyersclub yesterday. Didn't expect to end up on the front page of it, but pretty proud to be an ally! www.ardmediathek.de/video/rbb24-...

If the new BA.3 circulates long enough to pick up some transmission-enhancing mutations (think BA.2.86 getting L455S to become JN.1), it could be the next big thing. Or not. Time will tell. We should see it in other countries pretty soon if it’s the real deal. 13/end

Similar issues applied to COVID-19 in early 2020. Relatively high observed case fatality rates (confirmed fatalities/confirmed cases) relative to expectations suggest far more infections than confirmed cases. Which means the epidemic is far bigger than we know. www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...

We are continuing our @safehourberlin.bsky.social events now on bsky!

Always #maskup in the indoor changing rooms, kids!

LONDON VOLUNTEERS NEEDED Due to the demand for home delivered leaflets and the number of responses to our Edinburgh campaign we have decided to run another leaflet campaign in London!

Sad to learn that another of my AI research beacons has long COVID, and very impressed that they use their conference platform to promote COVID awareness! neurips.cc/virtual/2024...

This study, now nearly 5 years old, wrongly claimed that COVID-19 was no worse than the flu... it also provides a window into the mindset and approach to science in the world of those who will soon run HHS. sites.stat.columbia.edu/gelman/resea...

Next time a taxi driver looks at my mask and says "I have never had COVID so your precautions are nonsense." I will just tell them to read the first 10 pages of this book, free as a kindle sample. /sarcasm On a serious note, the book is great, recommend to anyone who had a go at modelling.

Love introducing family and friends to #vr

A simple fix should work because they’re not DiSaBlEd, they’re just tired/burned out/hussling too hard/not eating right/whatever excuse they’re telling themselves (OR what minimizing healthcare providers say). The reality is that minimization in healthcare fuels anti-science grifting

Arriving to a new place is a tricky part of #covidsafetravel. Is there mould? Any funky smells? I will only know it after the mask is off in a couple of hours. And if there is a smell - will the host have any surviving sense of smell to smell the same thing that I do? #maskup #covidisntover

Wales covid conscious crew is awesome! #maskup #isolatingtogether

"Dum spiro spero" While I breathe I hope. Wearing a mask is similar to being a religious monk - it's de-personifying. #maskup #hope

Rome Fiumicino is such a great airport! I could keep my Aura on at security check. Big contrast to Germany and Sweden where they really into seeing what secret is hiding underneath it. And the passport control face scanner worked great with my cleanspace on. #covidsafertravel

I am in the magnificent city of Rome in the year 2025 when the Catholic church is celebrating "The Jubilee of Hope" #maskup #covidisntover

Hey, I am really excited about my first #VR headset! I am instantly into my body and out of my mind. Sweating in VR workouts or calming downing with VR meditation and relaxation. Expect the number of #CovidConscious folks in VR to keep growing.

In Beijing, researchers found SARS-CoV-2 variant LP.8.1 combines strong immune evasion and efficient ACE2 binding, driving its rapid spread, unlike LF.7.2.1 and NP.1, which trade immune escape for weaker growth. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

This great film "Dr Wise on Influenza" was made 105 years ago by the UK government to educate the public about flu prevention during the 1918 pandemic... The current #covid and approaching human #H5N1 dangers are similar, but where is the response? www.youtube.com/watch?v=84nq...

Sad that this mutation is already here. Furthermore, E190D is just one option for human transmission. Another one is G225D. In 1918 some strains had one and some had another. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Pirate tech bro uniform neatly hides ffp3 gen3 aura

At a beach rave. A guy dancing next to me: "I like this! Who are you guys going to be tonight?.. Elephants?.. I see elephants." Another guy: "What's this?" Me: "Yeah, great party!" Him again: "no, what is this?" Me: "It's an art project." Him: "Hell yeah, high five!"

Great find for eating solid food when connecting in Singapore! Beautiful garden next to the food court. Even with no smoking signs! COVID Safe usually means liquid food only when flying.

Welcome to the COVID safe jungle beach bungalow! #airfanta #pluslife

Imagine a hospital in Europe having a sign like that? Instead of the panic reaction of "i have to explain to you it's mild" upon seeing a mask, by a doctor of any specialty.

Just a normal private hospital in South East Asia #maskup All doctors in ffp3 auras. All staff in kn95 or surgical.

Excellent discussion by Daniel Park of 3 recent papers on the Novavax SARSCoV2 vaccine. Better durability and cross reactivity and milder side effects than RNA vax. That's the way it appeared from early data, but it's good to see that confirmed. threadreaderapp.com/thread/18576...

Pool test by the pool. #pluslife

I am so relaxed because the coach is pluslifed. :)

Thailand is amazing for masking. I am still getting used to the fact that I am doing a socially acceptable act, not an act of protest. :)

Thailand is a masking paradise. Lots of locals wear them inside and outside. And if someone needs to take your picture, they carefully guide you to inhale, and do the photo quickly.
