🔶Diemžēl epidemioloģiskā situācija Latvijā liecina, ka Covid-19 izplatība turpina strauji pieaugt, tāpēc @Brivibas36 lēma par papildu drošības pasākumiem, tostarp, no rītdienas, 24. oktobra, sejas maskas būs jālieto plašāk. Sīkāk lasi: vm.gov.lv/lv/aktualitates/pr…

Esam sagatavojuši atbildes par vairogu lietošanu un funkcijām, kurus visbiežāk saņemam no personāla vadītājiem un darba aizsardzības speciālistiem: facebook.com/Shield48/photos…
Esam priecīgi ziņot, ka @SAFTehnika ir izvēlējies Shield48 vairogus savu darbinieku drošībai. Paldies par sadarbību!

'No one is safe until everyone is safe': Vaccine nationalism threatens global coronavirus effort

Instead of collaboration, coordination and sharing, vaccine nationalism pits nation against nation to get and keep enough doses for their citizens.

COVID-19 testi tagad Latvijā ir pieejami visiem (zvanīt 8303). Svarīgi, lai tos veiktu no ārzemēm atbraukušie un tie, kuriem pēc bāru vai ballīšu apmeklējuma parādās jebkādi elpceļu simptomi. Diagnostika visiem + @apturiCovid ir tās iespējas, kuras mums nebija martā.

Graduating residents n fellows - far too many institutions posting pics of trainees huddling together, arms around each other, hugging with no face coverings in site. Please do not continue to make these mistakes - it's dangerous to do and sends very wrong message to the public

Israel does not have the capabilities required to stop the spike in coronavirus cases and could be forced back into lockdown, according to Weizmann Institute of Science Prof. Eli Waxman. m.jpost.com/israel-news/coro…

#Iowa numbers- Total 24, 161, new 120, deaths 661 Remember back in March when everyone was clamoring for PPE for healthcare workers to protect them from #COVID19? Well now healthcare workers are clamoring YOU wear PPE to protect us all from #COVID19! #FaceShieldsForAll

I spent 2 weeks wearing a face shield instead of a mask, and I'm never going back

A shield's much more comfortable and practical than a mask. It can blow off in a stiff wind, though, and it's not great for a run.

“I can imagine that if you were bagging groceries six hours a day that it would be probably much more comfortable to wear a face shield,” says Dr. Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University. theatlantic.com/health/archi… @angie_rasmussen

You can choose between a mask and a face shield, but you can’t choose nothing.

The Case for Reusable PPE

Disposable means waste. Reusable PPE looks like an environmental win.

Keep gloves, masks, other PPE out of recycling bins. Do not litter these items either and instead bag these items and dispose of them properly by following local and Center for Disease Control guidelines.
“People can potentially infect themselves if they use contaminated hands to adjust a mask or to repeatedly take it off and put it on, without cleaning hands in between.” This is why face shields are good alternative @shield48eu @eliowa @mike_edmond amp.theguardian.com/world/20…

WHO advises public to wear face masks when unable to distance

Over-60s should use medical-grade masks and all others three-layer fabric ones, health body says

Worth bearing in mind that Israel has just 300 cases per million...whereas US has 3,500 cases per million. Re-opening schools in US before vaccine would result in catastrophic transmission.
