I really appreciate your newsletter, however I find your statement that "PPE should be the last line of defense" downplaying the role of PPE in covid protections. It should actually be the first line of defense, since air purifiers and other protective measures such as HEPA filters or opening windows take minutes, even hours before cleaning the indoor air, whereas respirators provide instant protection.
I urge you to correct your message and highlight the importance of everyone wearing PPE instead of downplaying its role, while at the same time highlighting the importance of layered protections.
Thanks, and hope we can together educate the public on how to protect themselves from this dangerous virus!
Thank you for continuing to monitor the situation and provide analysis.
Thank you so much for your helpful updates
