less risk ≠ no risk

some risk of adverse health effects, disability, destroyed immune systems, death, etc. is something to mitigate

mitigation includes masking, proper ventilation, social distancing, etc.

any time you're in a crowd (indoors, outdoors), wear a mask

do you want people to show up to protests, actions, etc.?

do you want these people united against fascism to be in poor health?

five years is more than enough time to learn a lesson. we might not have five more years. get it to-fucking-gether already

"It is commonly stated that risk science is politically neutral. This perspective article discusses this assertion by scrutinizing the relationship between risk science and politics... Using some current risk problems as illustrating examples, including COVID-19 and climate change risk, the article argues that defending the political neutrality aim is paramount, especially with today's increasingly divisive political landscape."

#BinaryRiskAnalysis takes the complexity out of #RiskAnalysis

Or rather, it acknowledges that we don't know a lot and doesn't add (fake) precision where we don't know what we are talking about.

JMIR Public Health and SurveillanceCombatting SARS-CoV-2 With Digital Contact Tracing and Notification: Navigating Six Points of FailureDigital contact tracing and notification were initially hailed as promising strategies to combat SARS-CoV-2; however, in most jurisdictions, they did not live up to their promise. To avert a given transmission event, both parties must have adopted the technology, it must detect the contact, the primary case must be promptly diagnosed, notifications must be triggered, and the secondary case must change their behavior to avoid the focal tertiary transmission event. If we approximate these as independent events, achieving a 26% reduction in the effective reproduction number Rt would require an 80% success rate at each of these 6 points of failure. Here, we review the 6 failure rates experienced by a variety of digital contact tracing and contact notification schemes, including Singapore’s TraceTogether, India’s Aarogya Setu, and leading implementations of the Google Apple Exposure Notification system. This leads to a number of recommendations, for example, that the narrative be framed in terms of user autonomy rather than user privacy, and that tracing/notification apps be multifunctional and integrated with testing, manual contact tracing, and the gathering of critical scientific data.
