The twitter photo brought up a current issue that I'm struggling with: the ending of masking in health care settings. A few states--Massachusetts--still have guidance, the rest are tying masking to case rates/transmission levels per CDC guidance, which are a vast undercount and not a reliable indication of risk and circulating virus. Can you address this in a future post? In my opinion, healthcare settings should err on the side of caution, especially hospitals, where in patients are confined to a bed without the ability to protect themselves.

Thank you for the Dr. Grassley link and the citation to Bartholomew et al. therein. I learned as a University behavorial sciences freshman that association is not causation particularly emotional association.
