👀 Look what just dropped onto my desk 👉 The latest Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) data for the UK-version of the #CorsiRosenthalBox (using a 14” Vent Axia fan). Just like others have found, this DIY filter compares very favourably against a range of HEPA filters #cleanairnow

[ FOG TEST!!

Got this fog machine for $18 on Black Friday. You can see how the Fandelier sucks up the aerosols and clears the air very quickly; any of these fog pulses would leave the room foggy a long time without the filters. ]

Update on the growth of #mastodon in the last months. After the big wave of new accounts on Nov 17th, the growth seems steady for the last week at around 50k new accounts/users per day. Only in the last couple of weeks, 1M new accounts were added. At this rhythm, #mastodon will get 1.5M accounts/users per month.

COVID-19: How good is a Novavax booster and with previous mRNA doses?

This long thread explores what kind of immune response a Novavax booster is giving people as a primary series and after 2 or 3 mRNA doses in recent studies. It will also explain how Novavax is different and what some of the benefits seem to be. 🧵 1/

[ One other thing: the great majority of those admitted to hospital for RSV are young children, but this season is particularly unusual for the relatively high number of hospital admissions in over-45s.

These four images are (in order): 45-64-year-olds, 65-74, 75-84 and 85+. ]

[ I've done a quick graph to show what's happening with Danish hospital admissions for RSV.

Each bar is a cohort, defined by the RSV season when they were 0-12 months old. So the left-hand bar shows hospital admissions for <1s in 2015/16 (blue), 1-2s in 16/17 (orange), etc. ]

[ Ninguna de las ocho vacunas contra la covid aprobadas en China utiliza la tecnología de ARN mensajero en que se basan las vacunas de Pfizer-BioNTech y de Moderna más utilizadas en los países occidentales. ]

[ Con tres dosis, estas diferencias desaparecen. Ambas vacunas tienen una eficacia superior al 97% para prevenir complicaciones graves de la covid en todos los grupos de edad...

Pero solo el 40% de la población mayor de 80 años de China ha sido vacunada con tres dosis. ]

[ Los mayores de 60 años representan el 18,4% de la población y un total de 266 millones de personas. De ellos, 29 millones son mayores de 80.

[ Pero China solo cuenta con 3,6 camas de uci por cada 100.000 habitantes, según los datos de World Population Review.

Por comparación, España tiene 9,7 y Estados Unidos, 34,7. ]

[ China también tiene menos médicos: 2,0 por cada mil habitantes, mientras que España tiene 4,0 y la media de la Unión Europea se sitúa en 4,9, según las estadísticas del Banco Mundial. ]

[ Las vacunas tuvieron utilidad. En la gráfica se ve que antes de la vacunación masiva la tasa de hosp. estaba entre el 5 y el 10%. Tras la vacunación la tasa se situó entre el 0,7% y el 2,5% (la región delimitada por flechas, la 6ª ola). Ahora es útil para mayores pero menos. ]

All the benefits of four filters in one giant 5" filter! As it has a smaller footprint than the regular #CorsiRosenthalBox I can move this easily from room to room.
Supplies:
👉 Lennox 20x20x5" MERV-13 furnace filter - 2-pack for ~$85 from Same Day Supply
👉 20" box fan
👉 15" opening cardboard shroud from box the fan came in
👉 White duct tape
👉 Pen and length of yarn to trace shroud opening, knife to cut shroud
