Flush and run! Viruses like COVID-19 can linger for hours in public restrooms – Study Finds (Me: Not good news)
“Both the toilet and urinal generated large quantities of droplets smaller than 3 micrometers in size, posing a significant transmission risk if they contain infectious microorganisms. Due to their small size, these droplets can remain suspended for a long time.”
Results show droplets reached heights of up to five feet for at least 20 seconds after flushing. Even when researchers closed the lid, the number of particles escaping only dropped slightly. The FAU team suggests aerosols likely escape through the gaps between the seat and cover.
“The significant accumulation of flush-generated aerosolized droplets over time suggests that the ventilation system was not effective in removing them from the enclosed space even though there was no perceptible lack of airflow within the restroom,” adds Masoud Jahandar Lashaki, Ph.D., from FAU’s Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatics Engineering. “Over the long-term, these aerosols could rise up with updrafts created by the ventilation system or by people moving around in the restroom.”

Preheat the oven to 390 degrees F. Roast the whole bell peppers in the oven for 20 minutes. Chop and deseed the peppers once they are roasted.
Meanwhile, pierce the tomatoes with a fork and submerge them in boiling water. A minute later, drain away the water, submerge them once more in cold water, and peel.
Chop the eggplants and zucchinis into thin slices. Add to a non-stick frying pan and fry for a couple of minutes on each side, until lightly browned.

Under 65’s to get alternative to AstraZeneca vaccine for second dose – Radio Sweden | Sveriges Radio (Me: No study has been done to determine what the impact/effectiveness of the different vaccine will be? Hoping for best, is not science)
Opinion | No, We Don’t Know if Coronavirus Vaccines Affect Periods – The New York Times
If so many things can affect periods, why don’t we know more about how these vaccines — or any others — affect menstruation? It’s part of a long history of medicine not taking women’s bodies seriously.
Clinical trials should track and document menstrual changes as they do other possible side effects. Like the fevers reported after the vaccines, a transient change in one’s period may not be bad for your overall health or have any lasting effects, but it’s still informative.
