Flatten the Curve

Assuming we have just crested in deaths at 80,000, it is possible that we lose another 80k people as we come off that peak. Data from the outbreaks in China and Italy shows the backside curve declines slowly, with deaths persisting for months. Epidemic curve has a relatively predictable upslope and once the peak is reached, the back slope can also be predicted.

Our Goal

Guide staff and owner- members away from situations of high risk / exposure.

slide-4
SLIDE 4

Minimize Risk As we are allowed to move around

  • ur communities more freely and be

in contact with more people in more places more regularly, the risks to

  • urselves and our family remain

significant.

How much Virus is released into the environment?

slide-11
SLIDE 11

The Virus and Infection

In order to get infected you need to get exposed to an infectious virus.

Some estimate that as few as 1000 viral particles are needed for an infection to take hold.

1000 viral particles you could receive from one eye-rub 100 viral particles inhaled with each breath over 10 breaths 10 viral particles with 100 breaths.

Each of these situations can lead to an infection.

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Breath

A single breath releases 50 - 5000 droplets. Most of these droplets are low velocity and fall to the ground quickly. There are even fewer droplets released through nose-breathing. Importantly, due to the lack of exhalation force with a breath, viral particles from the lower respiratory areas are not expelled.

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Cough

A single cough releases about 3,000 droplets and droplets travels at 50 miles per hour. Most droplets are large, and fall quickly (gravity), but many do stay in the air and can travel across a room in a few seconds. Wear a MASK If you are sick – stay home!

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Sneeze

A single sneeze releases about 30,000 droplets, with droplets traveling at up to 200 miles per hour. Most droplets are small and travel great distances (easily across a room). If a person is infected, the droplets in a single sneeze may contain as many as 200,000,000 (two hundred million) virus particles which can all be dispersed into the environment around them. Wear a MASK If you are sick – stay home!

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Sneeze

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Droplets

If a person coughs or sneezes, those viral particles go everywhere. Some virus hang in the air, some fall onto surfaces, most fall to the ground.

So if you are face-to-face with a person, having a conversation, and that person sneezes or coughs straight at you, it's pretty easy to see how it is possible to inhale virus particles and become infected.

slide-17
SLIDE 17

The Formula

Successful Infection = Exposure to Virus x Time

slide-18
SLIDE 18

General Breathing

20 viral particles (droplets) spread into the environment Even if every virus particle ended up in your lungs (which is very unlikely), you would need 1000 viral particles divided by 20 per minute = 50 minutes.

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Speaking

Speaking increases the release of respiratory droplets about 10-fold 200 virus particles per minute. Again, assuming every virus particle is inhaled, it would take ~5 minutes of speaking face-to-face to receive the required dose.

slide-20
SLIDE 20

Exposure

 Anyone you spend greater than 10 minutes with, in a face-to-face situation is potentially infected  Anyone who shares a space with you (say an office) for an extended period is potentially infected  This is also why it is critical for people who are symptomatic to stay home. Your sneezes and your coughs expel so much virus that you can infect a whole room of people

slide-21
SLIDE 21

The Crux Personal Dangers from Reopening

 Outside of the terrible outbreaks in nursing homes, the biggest outbreaks are

  • ccurring in prisons, religious

ceremonies, and workplaces  Meat Packing Facilities  Call Centers  Any environment that is enclosed, with poor air circulation and high density of people, spells trouble

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Super Spreading Events

Meat processing plants have densely packed workers communicating to one another amidst the deafening drum of industrial machinery in a cold- room virus-preserving environment. There are now

  • utbreaks in 115 facilities across 23 states, 5000+

workers infected, with 20 dead

Weddings, funerals, birthdays: 10% of early spreading events Business networking: Face-to-face business networking like the Biogen Conference in Boston in late February

slide-23
SLIDE 23

RCSCW Risk Areas

Bathrooms Gyms Break Rooms Workplaces Indoor Sports Social Clubs Craft Clubs

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Bathrooms and Showers

 Bathrooms have a lot of high touch surfaces, door handles, faucets, stall doors.  Transfer risk in this environment can be high.  We still do not know whether a person releases infectious material in feces or just fragmented virus, but we do know that toilet flushing does aerosolize many droplets.  Treat public bathrooms with extra caution.  WASH YOUR HANDS!!

slide-25
SLIDE 25

Workplaces

 A good example is the outbreak in a call center.  A single infected employee came to work on the 11th floor of a

  • building. That floor had 216 employees. Over the period of a

week, 94 of those people became infected. 92 of those 94 people became sick. This example serves to highlight that being in an enclosed space, sharing the same air for a prolonged period increases your chances of exposure and infection.  This highlights the importance of exposure and time in the spreading of virus.  WEAR A MASK !!

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Indoor Sports

A super spreading event occurred during a curling event in Canada. A curling event with 72 attendees became another hotspot for transmission. Curling brings contestants and teammates in close contact in a cool indoor environment, with heavy breathing for an extended period. This tournament resulted in 24 of the 72 people becoming infected.

slide-27
SLIDE 27

RCSCW Reopening Game Plan

Social Distancing The principle is viral exposure over an extended period of time. Safety First

Physical Mental Financial

slide-28
SLIDE 28

Facts

 Indoor spaces, with limited air exchange or recycled air and lots of people, are concerning from a transmission standpoint.  We know that 60 people in a volleyball court- sized room (church choir for example) results in massive infections. Same situation exists with restaurants and call centers. Social distancing guidelines don't hold in indoor spaces where you spend a lot of time.  In all cases, people were exposed to the virus for a prolonged period (hours). Even if they were 50 feet away (choir or call center), even a low dose of the virus can reach them, over a sustained period, was enough to cause infection and in some cases, even death.

slide-29
SLIDE 29

Social Distancing

The effects of sunlight, heat, and humidity on viral survival, all serve to minimize the risk to everyone when outside

In these outdoor situations there is not enough time to achieve the infectious viral load when you are standing 6 feet apart or where wind and the infinite outdoor space for dilution reduces viral load

Distancing rules are really to protect you with brief or outdoor exposures

slide-30
SLIDE 30

Risk

 Assessing the risk of infection (via respiration) at the grocery store or mall, you need to consider the volume of the air space (very large), the number of people (restricted), how long people are spending in the store  Taken together, for a person shopping: the low density, high air volume of the store, along with the restricted time you spend in the store, means that the opportunity to receive an infectious dose is low

slide-31
SLIDE 31

Risk to Employee

But, for the store worker or employee, the extended time they spend in the facility provides a greater opportunity to receive the infectious dose and therefore the job becomes riskier.

slide-32
SLIDE 32

Work Environment and Judgement

 How many people are here, how much airflow is there around me, and how long will I be in this environment.  If you are in an open floorplan office, you really need to critically assess the risk (volume, people, and airflow). If you are in a job that requires face-to-face talking or even worse, yelling, you need to assess the risk.  If you are sitting in a well-ventilated space, with few people, the risk is low.

slide-33
SLIDE 33

Outdoor Recreation Golf Pickle Ball Tennis Bocce Mini-Golf Lawn Bowling Walking Track

slide-34
SLIDE 34

Outdoor Sports

 If I am outside, and I walk past someone, remember it is “dose and time” needed for

  • infection. You would have to be in their airstream

for 5+ minutes for a chance of infection.  Outdoor recreation (Pickle Ball / Tennis, Lawn Bowling etc.) may be releasing more virus due to deep breathing, remember the exposure time is also less due to open air dilution and movement.  Physical distance is important, but the risk of infection in these scenarios are lower.

slide-35
SLIDE 35

Please Use Caution

Even if you are gung-ho for reopening and resuming business as usual, you need to do your part and wear a mask to reduce what you release into the environment. It will help everyone. Wash your hands often and stop touching your face!
