I wish everyone did! Thanks.

You rather downplay the importance & effectiveness of masking (FFP2+), particularly in health settings where IPC is worse than pre-pandemic.

5/ The key message? No single measure is enough. Success comes from combining vaccination, isolation support, good ventilation, and clear communication. Governments must make this possible, or we will continue repeating the same cycle every winter.

4/ Ventilation saves lives. Clean indoor air, through ventilation or filtration, dramatically cuts the spread of respiratory infections. It’s time to treat air quality like food hygiene: a basic public health requirement.

Happy with 4 - about as good as it got today. 😂
