 Health Canada is pushing the lie that there is a "respiratory virus season" in the midst of the ongoing covid pandemic, and emphasizing droplet and contact precautions when we know A) all respiratory viruses are primarily spread by aerosols and B) aerosol production is dominated by ordinary activities like breathing and talking, not coughing and sneezing (which are rare episodic, not continuous and commonplace).
