Would be so friggin' awesome if George could pull this one off... Would make my life a lot easier :wink:. The US isgetting spanked by China so badly these days, so this would be the ultimate slap!This is a pretty big slap too... https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)31278-2/fulltext(the US abstract version would be "it'll be fine, let's just wait and see".

I think they must mean 'droplet'...

It should be clear though - airborne transmission is definitely a risk with SC2, but I highly doubt it's dominant.

I was worried about conclusion being made on whether people use/don't use face masks. Australia and NZ have had 2 of the most successful control policies globally. Hardly anyone where's a mask here.
-
I think the data is shifting pretty strongly towards mask wearing being (potentially highly) beneficial. But it's definitely not the only way - Denmark is the same. One concern I have about the success Down Under - what's the effect ofweather? I hope NZ and Australia won't sleep on their laurels as winter approaches.

Oh, I don't disagree with the conclusion at all (I completely agree that face masks are hugely important), but the analysis is dire. There's no weather effect in any of this: climatic conditions play a secondary role when the population is completely susceptible - that's the key factor. Look at Brazil and Chile is kicking off. Seasonality may well evolve as immunity kicks in, but it's not there yet.
