The Difference Between Droplet And Airborne Spread.
The latest propaganda from the genocidal axis of evil is now telling everyone to open their windows to help ‘stop the spread’ of the killer virus of death (that continues to not kill people, especially those it infects). As with every single piece of propaganda issued by the regime, it is inaccurate at best & a complete lie at worst, as well as actually being the cause of increased infections and deaths. This latest piece of patronising drivel tells us that the virus is airborne, specifically “it is spread through the air by large droplets and smaller particles“. Incorrect. The virion is droplet spread not airborne spread and there is a huge difference. Back in March, before the onset of the Great Insanity, we set out the various ways in which a virus can be spread, highlighting that SARS-CoV-2 is droplet spread.
Following intracellular replication, the newly-created virions are ejected from the infected host cells and then jettisoned through exhalation, using mucal excreta as their means of exit. The relative weight of the exhaled droplets is why you have social distancing (they fall to the ground within 1-1.5 metres) as well as perspex screens.
It is also why visors are much more effective than non-surgical face coverings, as a visor allows unrestricted normal exhalation, catching mucal excreta on the inside of the visor, compared to a non-surgical face covering that restricts normal exhalation and causes the re-inhalation of infected mucal exreta for hours on end. SARS-CoV-2 is all about viral load – especially in the upper respiratory tract – and with a burst size of 103, sustained re-inhalation of infected mucal excreta can increase viral load to dangerous levels. It is no coincidence that the number of hospital admissions rises as the number of people being forced to wear non-surgical face coverings rises and for longer periods of time. You can read more about the dangers of non-surgical face coverings in this previous article.
It is also rather hard not to miss the obvious parallel between now telling everyone to open their windows whilst at the same time telling everyone to wear a non-surgical face covering. Free movement of air versus restricted movement of air.
T1/2 Half Life.
SARS-CoV-2 ejected virions bound in mucal excreta can survive on surfaces – the usual example being door handles – for a short period of time, until their T1/2 is reached. This is something we explained in early April, highlighting that like any virus, the virion particle needs a living host to survive and once extracellular, its virulence wanes and its death is guaranteed. It may be detectable for weeks but it ceases to be infectious after just a few hours. Unless of course you are the BBC (the provisional wing of the propaganda ministry) in which case stupidity means you confuse one with the other and you tell people that surface can remain infectious for weeks or months. Incorrect.
As to whether or not door handles and parcels actually count as fomites is the subject of debate, with some definitions calling any inanimate object that can transmit infection a fomite and others that it is only those on which the virion is capable of survival whilst it remains infectious. Inanimate objects are a transmission vector, i.e. someone with infectious mucal excreta on their hand will leave some residue on a door handle they touch but – as above – the countdown clock to T1/2 starts immediately. However, the actual virions are still being spread by droplets.
Given that we don’t live in a vacuum and are surrounded by our atmosphere then everything in existence travels through air: objects, sound, light etc…just not the virions themselves. They are carried through the air in droplets of mucal excreta but they are not airborne in their own right: like the Vogon constructor ships in The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy they hang around in the air “in much the same way bricks don’t“. Neither do virions have wings or tiny wee jetpacks that allow them to loiter on street corners for hours (like the invisible mugger Emperor Wannabe-Winston Johnson thinks exists) or glide across the road when they see someone they feel like infecting.
Carried Through The Air Is Not Airborne.
Somehow, droplet spread has been turned into the lie that the virus is airborne spread and therefore, seemingly counterintuitively, now you must open your windows to let fresh air in but only clean air. But what happens to the ‘infected’ air already inside? Does it stay there, being pushed ever further back into the lounge or finding itself cowering behind the Breville sandwich toaster in the kitchen? Does it sneak out of the window when nobody is looking on a 1-in-1-out basis (Only 400,000 Virions Allowed In This Room At Any One Time)?
As anyone with even the most fundamental understanding of pressure and temperature will know, air circulates and so opening a window allows air on the outside to come in and air on the inside to go out. So unless you are standing close to a window and breathing out through it, any exhaled droplets will fall to the ground long before they fly out through the window, in the opposite manner to the winged monkeys in The Wizard Of Oz – “fly my pretties, fly!‘.
The hilarity in this latest piece of propaganda is that the groupthink chant so far has been ‘stop the spread’, despite that measures that have been taken to try and achieve this having accounted for the deaths of tens of thousands of people. How then can you ‘stop the spread’ if you are telling people to increase the spread by opening their windows and releasing the killer virus of death into the open air, when the propaganda tells us that it is airborne? It is yet another of those stupidity-101 moments that have riddled the government’s response. Moments embodied by this simple question: ‘if this really were the most dangerous killer virus of death ever, would the correct course of action if you think you’ve got it be to stay at home for a couple of weeks (unless you feel like going out) or seek urgent medical assistance?’.
Don’t Just Open A Window – Go Outside.
The sudden focus upon the importance of ventilating interior space is finally recognition of something our research identified as being one of the most – if not the most – important factors relating to SARS-CoV-2: viral dosage and viral load. We first wrote about this in early April, analysing work done by Professor Siddhartha Mukherjee. The inter-relationship between viral dosage & viral load is why lockdowns cause more deaths and why the vast majority of those who died did so after going into the death-factories known as NHS hospitals.
While not yet an admission that confinement indoors for sustained periods of times in close proximity to others is why so many have died unnecessarily, the recognition of the circulating air is at least a step in the right direction. The circulation of individuals not simply the air is what is needed. Movement is safety.
A very prudent way to think of SARS-CoV-2 is as a source of radiation, with its virions the radioactive particles. Low level, frequent exposure to radiation is fine but high level exposure in a confined space for a sustained period of time increases irradiation to harmful levels. Lockdown confined people in close proximity to each other for sustained periods of time, increasing low viral dosage (well within the innate immune system’s capability to deal with, as pattern recognition receptor TLR7 is programmed to recognise coronavirus RNA) to high viral dosage and therefore high viral load, causing moderate to severe symptoms of COVID-19.
Think Of SARS-CoV-2 As Radiation.
Simply ventilating an irradiated surface will not clear it of radiation (remember the scene from The Hunt For Red October) in the same way as opening a window will not remove infection from an infected interior space, despite the contradictory messaging that we must all ‘stop the spread’ but it’s fine to encourage the spread of it by opening a window. In the bullshit world of government propaganda, only lovely fresh air is allowed in with the killer virus of death magically swapping places with it, while also managing not to be the killer virus of death the moment it gets outside and risks being drawn in through next door’s open window.
If it’s airborne spread as the latest propaganda tells you, then how can it be OK for you to open a window and let the killer virus of death out through it? In which case, what’s wrong with you being outdoors and simply breathing?
If it’s droplet spread (hint: non-surgical face covering, perspex screens, social distancing…yep, it’s droplet spread) then what is the point of opening a window?
Once again, the government’s strategy is completely incorrect. Not just very wrong but so wrong it causes worse outcomes and – compared to doing nothing – makes the situation worse, i.e. increasing viral dosage and viral load; and making individuals more likely to become ill through the lack of vitamin D synthesis from being outdoors and an increase in levels of angiotensin II caused by fear-induced stress and high blood pressure, exacerbated by the downregulation of ACE2 as the binding receptor for SARS-CoV-2 and therefore disruption of the ACE2→ angiotensin1-7→ Mas receptor and ACE→ angiotensin II→ AT1 receptor axes.
Don’t stay indoors and open a window. Get outdoors into the open air.
Do not panic. Do not worry. Follow common sense, not government advice.
