The Swiss Cheese Respiratory Virus Defence

posted on 2020-12-13, 03:11 authored by Ian M. MackayIan M. MackayAn infographic I made to help clarify that in order to
best limit personal risk and community risk from being infected by, or
passing on, SARS-CoV-2, we need to think of using a range of risk
reduction measures. Each have their own failings and these can be
affected by circumstances so layering them up helps avoid any single
measure's (layer) problems (holes).
Or you could just physically distance by living on island, by yourself, forever! (I reckon we'll run out of islands).
So instead, think about this layered approach originally outlined in 1990 by Prof James Reason.
