🔗 Why the WHO respirator revolt could reshape global health governance

At stake is not merely the technical distinction between a loose fitting medical mask and a respirator certified to FFP2 or FFP3 standards in the United Kingdom or N95 standards in the United States. At stake is whether health systems have been knowingly deploying substandard protective equipment in environments where exposure to lethal airborne disease is foreseeable, continuous and unavoidable.

Under international labour law, this question is already answered.

I wish them well pushing that through.

I think a big part is that for a long while, they were refusing to acknowledge the elephant in the room … it was cheaper to deflect and focus on hand hygiene (which while a very good idea, won't work on its own). Anyone who said otherwise was ridiculed.

Its taken years to get the medical fraternity to finally accept that things are a little less rosy than they're making out. Not panic level, but with the right tools, manageable. They're finally coming around to the idea that hand-washing won't work here.

I suspect we won't get government health departments moving on this for another 3~5 years… and even then, it'll be a while before they flush their inventory of the crappy ones and finally get decent stuff in.

The silver lining will be that increased demand for decent quality PPE will mean it becomes more widely available.

@NilaJones James Hardie tried running away overseas to avoid asbestos litigation here in Australia. It's been outlawed for decades now, but lots of places still have it.

The house I live in to this day still has a wall of the stuff, asbestos will have a long legacy.

"Surgical" masks will likely be the same. Some will accept the new situation, and adapt… others will continue to ignore it and pretend it'll "go away".

Elsewhere may be faster to move, but I suspect the current US federal government to be uninterested in fixing the status quo for quite some time.

I always forget about the PADM Precision Air

// backstory: the 3M 7500 series is [for me] the most comfortable+well-sealing half-face elastomeric respirator I've tried; it comes in three sizes to fit many faces and has a very soft silicon seal. The closest approximation to its shape+fit I've found is the Precision Air, a made-for-healthcare N95 respirator from a 🇨🇦 company called PADM.

It has a nice design with non-industrial looking colours, is about 10g lighter than the 3M, uses easy-to-change filters (though not cheap), and doesn't have a valve (ie has source control).

Due to the Canadian government and various healthcare authorities giving many of the long-term contracts for respiratory PPE to US companies like 3M, PADM and many other local manufacturers got out of the respiratory PPE business.

However, the Precision Air is still available from at least one reseller in two sizes: M/L (white & blue and S/M (white & purple). I got my hands on them a couple years ago (they come without filters, which have to be ordered separately 🤦) and was pleasantly surprised.

Scientists Just Connected the Dots Between Viruses and… Everything -- we need to rethink everything we thought we knew about getting sick.

rachel.fast.ai/posts/2025-10-0…

Most people catch many viruses in their lives– for example, over 90% of adults have Epstein-Barr virus, and adults catch the flu about once every 5 years. For a long time, catching frequent viruses was considered both inevitable and harmless. But it turns out that common, seemingly-mild viruses have disturbing long-term health impacts.

Common respiratory viruses increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Viruses are linked to dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease. They can re-awaken cancer cells in patients whose cancer was previously in remission. Persistent infections accelerate aging and undermine longevity. Viruses can be the trigger that kicks off life-long autoimmune diseases. New studies come out each week confirming that viruses can harm the health of your heart, blood vessels, brain, nervous system, and gut.

Please pause and let this sink in. If we were to truly internalize this information, there would be massive shifts in the practice of medicine, scientific research, and public policy.

Size distribution and viral RNA load of influenza virus-laden airborne particles emitted from pigs over the course of an H1N1 infection
nature.com/articles/s41598-025…
In this study, we used pigs as a model for the airborne transmission of influenza A virus (IAV) and we quantified nasal shedding, viral RNA load of airborne particles emitted from pigs experimentally infected with a swine-origin H1N1 IAV, and characterized the size distribution of the virus-laden particles generated from infected pigs over the course of infection. We found that the peak of nasal shedding and airborne IAV-laden particles across multiple size ranges took place at 2 days post inoculation (DPI), with higher viral RNA load found in larger particles. The amount of airborne IAV emitted by infected pigs over the course of infection in particles > 8 μm was significantly higher than that in particles between 0.22 and 1.7 μm. These findings help understand the risk of airborne transmission of IAV in pigs and provide information to help control airborne infections more effectively.

Wearing an N95 mask reduces the inhalation risk of spherical-type microplastics by 25.5 times compared with not wearing a mask.

Wearing low-quality masks for longer than 4 h can pose higher fiber-like microplastic inhalation risk than not wearing a mask. When the masks are reused for a long time, only N95 respirators pose less fiber-like microplastic inhalation risk compared with not wearing a mask.

Following a fatal outbreak of anthroponotic respiratory disease among chimpanzees at the long-term field site of Ngogo, Kibale National Park, Uganda, research personnel implemented more stringent disease prevention protocols (e.g., use of face masks in the presence of chimpanzees). Furthermore, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, a 7-day quarantine period prior to any exposure to chimpanzees was implemented for all Ngogo research personnel.

Chimpanzees were observed to cough less frequently following the implementation of more stringent disease prevention protocols compared to the period prior. Coughing frequencies were even lower following the implementation of the quarantine period.

🔗 Minimal Influenza Virus Transmission From Touching Contaminated Floors and Metal Door Levers: Laboratory Study II onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10…

In our previous paper, we demonstrated through a series of experiments that the probability of influenza virus transmission from touching contaminated surfaces of face masks is minimal (Sci Rep 2024, 14, 20211). In the present study, we expanded upon this study by conducting an experimental evaluation of the likelihood of influenza transmission from dried fomites under three specific scenarios... We found that viable viruses were rarely transmitted to fingertips from the above fomites even when the viral loads in the viral fluid contaminating the fomites far exceeded that seen in real life. Consequently, we conclude that the probability of contact transmission of influenza via dried fomites is negligible or minimal under the scenarios studied here.

Respirators are so effective that United Kingdom research has indicated their use by the public would have dropped the rate of COVID transmission by an estimated factor of 9, compared with 0.6 for surgical masks. A factor of 9 is enough to put SARS-COV-2 into exponential decay, meaning the virus would have been highly suppressed for as long as respirator use continued. The exponential math of viral spread also means that perfect masking compliance would not have been required to achieve suppression.

Air pollution contributes to nearly 7 million premature deaths each year, and its effects go far beyond the lungs. Breathing in wildfire smoke or automobile-related city smog doesn't just increase the risk of asthma and heart disease -- it may also contribute to brain conditions

Scientists have discovered how a chemical change in the brain -- which can be triggered by inflammation and aging as well as toxins found in air pollution, pesticides, wildfire smoke and processed meats -- disrupts normal brain cell function. Known as S-nitrosylation, this chemical change prevents brain cells from making new connections and ultimately results in cellular death

"Respirator" means a facemask that seals around the mouth and nose for the purpose of filtering all the air the wearer inhales.

Respirators can be constructed of either:

a) an elastomeric body designed to be reused many times with replaceable electrostatically-charged, glass fibre, charcoal and/or gas filters, straps, etc

b) an electrostatically-charged fabric designed to be disposed of after one or a small number of uses.

Most reusable elastomeric respirators (N95, FFP2, FFP3, P100) have exhalation valves, but some don't.

Most disposable fabric respirators (KN95, KF94, N95, FFP2, FFP3) don't have exhalation valves, but some do.
