@SaskiaPopescu @aetiology @angievassallo @angie_rasmussen, as we do #scicomm on transmission of respiratory infections, I came across "opportunistic aerosol transmission" - I can't remember who described the overdispersion of SARS-CoV-2 this way...maybe @gmleunghku? 1/2
or perhaps it was @peripatetical @DrToddLee @BogochIsaac
Either way, I know y'all are working on an appropriate term that really goes to #scicomm risk ala @EpiEllie's #PeopleTimeSpacePlace... 2/2

It looks like Dr. Milton @Don_Milton & Dr. Chad Roy took a nuanced & practical approach to classify airborne transmission as "obligate, preferential, or opportunistic...to induce disease thru fine-particle aerosols & other routes" in 4/2004 NEJM article. https://twitter.com/jakescottMD/status/1312525865561944065?s=19
