The @PanFabBoston team started its work about a year ago in response to #COVID19 related shortages of #PPE at @BrighamWomens. A primary goal at PanFab was to engineer solutions to the PPE crisis in real time using technology like #3Dprinting. 1/

Increasing the proportion of SARS-CoV-2 infections that are asymptomatic with the simple public health measure of universal masking might help make the infection less deadly and increase population-level immunity without severe illnesses and deaths. #COVID19 #SARSCoV2

Lack of trust undermines our ability to work together to fight against Covid. That's why we must base decisions on science and insist on complete transparency on data and process.

If an asymptomatic contact tests positive, their contacts can be identified, warned, and quarantined. Not testing asymptomatic contacts allows Covid to spread. The CDC guidance is indefensible. No matter who wrote it and got it posted on the CDC site, it needs to be changed.

Mass General Brigham adopted universal #masking for staff in April and saw the rates of positive tests drop steeply. fal.cn/39Elx

Evidence is growing, but what will it take to prove masks slow the spread of COVID-19?

Numerous studies are building a compelling case for universal masking as a low-tech way to help reign in the spread of the coronavirus, and perhaps avoid the need for more painful restrictions.
