Robert (or anyone else), do you know anyone who actually works in pandemic preparedness? I’m wondering how to get ideas to such people. For example:
artificial summer (optimize indoor temperature and humidity to reduce viral survival time on surfaces)
study mask reuse, given likely shortages (for example bake used masks in home ovens at low enough temperature to not damage the fibers but still kill the viruses)
scale up manufacturing of all drugs showing effectiveness against 2019-nCoV in vitro, ahead of clinical trial results
longer term:
subsidize or mandate anti-microbial touch surfaces in public spaces (door handles, etc.)
stockpile masks and other supplies, make the stockpiles big enough, and publicize them to avoid panic/hoarding/shortages

I know 2 working in normal pandemic preparedness and 2-3 in EA GCBR stuff.
I can offer introductions though they are probably worked off their feet just now. DM me somewhere?
Thanks Rob, I emailed you.
