💨🚧😷 Respiratory viruses are much more likely to spread indoors than outdoors, but outdoor super-spreading events can still occur if the conditions are right.

A new study describes a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak affecting 131 people at a night market. 🧵

💨🚧😷 This study shows that super-spreading events can occur outside if the conditions are right. It’s probably a good idea to continue to wear a mask outside if the environment is crowded. 💨 🐲 (points made by Dr Zoë Hyde, Epidemiologist & biostatistician. OzSAGE scientific advisory group member.

Clustering is a key element for superspreading events

Commonalities among superspreading events include indoor settings, crowds, exposure durations of 1 hour or more, poor ventilation, vocalization, and lack of proper mask-wearing.

En het is altijd goed om algemene #preventie in het achterhoofd te houden 🤧😷💨
We zitten in de start van de #griepgolf en andere luchtwegvirussen gaan rond
Hopelijk hebben we van kerst geen #superspreading event gemaakt https://twitter.com/almatostmann/status/1605503468692594688

ps: maak van de #Kerstborrel op je werk geen #superspreading event. Doe van tevoren een zelftest, blijf thuis als die positief is.
Tenzij je je collega's/vrienden graag een corona-infectie bezorgt die ze op hun kerstdiner verder kunnen doorgeven 🤷‍♀️

My college kid isn’t allowed to miss class when they’re sick (or even join virtually) or they will be docked “participation points”. Did we learn nothing over the past 2.5 years???? #medmastodon #viruses #superspreading

Aww🥰 I’m glad my #perspective helped🖤

feel like I’m constantly(I’m not, just feels like it)experiencing situations I was #unwholly aware of that might be in a flash,deadly #COVIDisAirborne

Then have to #analyze it, figure out how to avoid it/change #reaction being least #rude

Still #fuming over this care worker who had no concept of personal space & #superspreading everywhere she goes. #YouDoYou is the biggest #publicHealth #failure

Ohne Maske zum #Oktoberfest. Das nennt sich dann wohl als Landesvater #Söder mit abschreckendem Beispiel vorangehen.Happy #SuperSpreading! #PIRATEN
