Covid Treatment Research, Toilet Plumes, and Increasing Cases 6-23-2020

There’s a study coming out of the UK about using a steroid called Dexamethasone to treat COVID19 symptoms. The initial reports look good, but we’ll hold judgement until we see the full study. (The pre-print of this article is now available: https://bit.ly/2VfZrpf) Toilet plumes are also in the news. Apparently flushing a toilet can throw virus into the air. We’re still learning about how and whether this is leading to infection. Finally, and most importantly, COVID19 cases are rising in many state of the US, as states continue to open back up. We look at why those numbers are rising, and why no one seems to be doing anything about it.
