Eduskunnan norosta uutta tietoa, mutta vain vähän: https://yle.fi/a/74-20153411
> Analyysin perusteella vatsatautisairastumisia oli eduskunnassa jo ennen ruokailuja 7.–11. maaliskuuta. Tapaukset lisääntyivät selvästi 11. maaliskuuta alkaen.
> Mikään yksittäinen tarjolla ollut ruokalaji ei selittänyt kaikkia tapauksia. Sairastuneita oli myös keittiöhenkilökunnassa.
Aika itsepäisesti on keskitytty ruokaan. Keittiöhenkilökunnan tapausten ajankohdat olisi myös varsin olennaista tietoa.

i'm always extra-incensed by the extreme disconnect my entire queer theories or sexuality studies classes operate from around covid! we can talk about hiv/aids, informed consent, eugenics, etc all the while everyone in the room is maskless & there is always at least one coughing someone was talking about feeling safe in queer spaces w/their multiple marginalized identities, which is very real! but even still it's ironically not inclusive to further marginalized folks. so vexed by the incessant disconnect so i had to share this:
folks really gotta start questioning how radical they really are because not being covid cautious during this mass disabling event is at odds with being inclusive, accessible, intentional, community oriented, creating safe space, practicing consent, siding with the marginalized.

#Norovirus is all over central #Florida right now, no cruise ship required. Just go out to eat or go anywhere and forget to wash your hands before you eat. Ask me how I know...

Eduskunnassa jo 90 vatsatautiin sairastunutta ja taudinaiheuttajaksi epäillään norovirusta. Tartuntojen selittämiseksi pintojen puhtautta on tutkittu ankaralla tarkkuudella löytämättä niistä moitittavaa.
Selitys saattaakin löytyä tutusta kuolleesta kulmasta: on näyttöä että myös norovirus leviää tehokkaasti ilmassa, ks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norovirus#Transmission
Toisin sanoen osan norovirustartunnoista pitäisi voida ehkäistä hyvällä ilmahygienialla. Ilmahygienia tarkoittaa mm. tehokasta ilmanvaihtoa ja/tai ilmanpuhdistimien, sekä mahdollisuuksien mukaan sitä tehokkainta yksilöllistä keinoa eli hengityssuojainten käyttöä.
Jos virusta aerosolisoituu ilmaan etenkin erinäisten nesteiden poistuessa elimistöstä äkillisesti, omaa tartuntariskiä voi vähentää poistumalla välittömästi tilasta kiertäen oirehtiva etäältä. Paluu tilaan korkeintaan tiiviisti asetellun hengityssuojaimen kanssa. Jos tapaus sattuu ruokaillessa, ruokaa ei pidä syödä loppuun, ellei siihen mahdollisesti laskeutunutta virusta ensin tuhoa kuumentamalla.
Koska virus voi säilyä ympäristössä tartuttamiskykyisenä jopa viikkoja, on olemassa riski, että pinnoille ja varsinkin tekstiileille laskeutuneet viruspartikkelit pölähtävät myöhemmin uudelleen ilmaan ja aiheuttavat tartunnan. Suojautumista ja korostettua hygieniaa saattaa siis olla syytä jatkaa usean viikon ajan, jos kotona on ollut vatsatautitapaus.
Jos on muita ideoita, saa ehdottaa!
