Medical school lectures on respiratory pathogens in 2060:
“Interestingly in the 1900s and early 2000s, doctors thought respiratory viruses were transmitted by fomites, not aerosols. They spent a tremendous amount of energy cleaning hands/surfaces instead of cleaning indoor air.”
“Unsurprisingly, they were quite terrible at limiting the spread of respiratory viruses and had terrible epidemics each year leading to thousands of deaths, including many among infants and young children. Air hygiene has been one of the greatest PH advancements of the century.”
